San Francisco's the Toiling Midgets formed in late 1979 as an instrumental band with Craig Gray and Paul Hood on guitars, Tim Mooney on drums and Jonathan Henrickson on bass. In 1981 the late Ricky Williams joined the band to record 'Sea of Unrest' (Instant [Rough Trade US]) and lasted with the initial lineup through a brief West Coast tour. By 1983 they'd reformed with bass player Aaron Gregory and 3rd guitarist Annie Unger (Gun Club)
