The peridots (note lowercase 'p') evolved from Modernaires,

Stan eventually demanded a drummer and for a brief period before their ultimate
demise the peridots became a trio with Pat Larkin (ex The Blades) on drums.
Stan Erraught left in late 1981 or early 1982 and was later in the Ghostdance,
Stars of Heaven.
The remaining duo split soon after.
