We have been digging up a lot of old artifacts about the band and its members.  We've been finding a lot of old photos, as well as some audio and even video clips.  They are things that the members (and former members) of the band have found, as well as things that fans and friends have sent us.  We really appreciate the memorabilia many of you have given us.

So we've decided to share this material with you here.   It is not presented in any particular order, and represents quite a range of time and space.

If any of our friends or fans has anything they would like to send us, please send it to archives@CenterStBand.com.

We hope you enjoy this section.


Most of these files are fairly large.  They are not streamed, so we recommend that you download them to your PC/Mac and play them from your hard drive.  To download, right click on the link and when the box of selections comes up, select Save Target As.  Then you can choose where on your hard drive to save them.


These are the original demo tapes that the Center Street Band recorded at Paul Opalach's Long Hill Recording Studio in 1991 or 1992. Click to play them.  Right click to download and save them.
