So is that was caused the rift between Dave and Phil?We've seen Dave Alvin at least 3 times in the last decade or so. One time it was with Phil - think it was the Rhythm room in Phoenix. Later they were going to play as the Blasters with X (at Crescent Ballroom) but it was cancelled.
Hard Line was an album I discovered in college in the 80s thanks to Audio magazine.

I can imagine it's tough being in a band with a brother. There are many examples of where brothers started out together but parted ways fairly soon.
I have a couple of the brother's solo efforts. Both good albums in their own right:
Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore - "Downey To Lubbock"
Phil Alvin & Sun Ra - "Un Sung Stories"
Here's a live take from Dave & Phil's record Common Ground where they play the music of Big Bill Broonzy. The drummer here is really good - she can be a real monster if the music calls for it.

Thanks for that. I wasn't aware of "Common Ground". Will have to get a copy.
