POPOVICH, Judge,

¶1concurring:

¶2The record in this case reveals no sentencing transcript or pre-sentence report which might explain the apparently harsh sentence received by appellant. On remand, the sentencing court should state, on the record, its reasons for *557sentencing and should consider the pre-sentence investigation which was ordered on July 1, 1981, but was not made a part of the record. See Commonwealth v. Riggins, 474 Pa. 115, 377 A.2d 140 (1977).
