Chalk It Up To The Blues
|
Seeing this band live recently (in Reno) gave me a new respect for them. First- it's just refreshing to see a band where the drummer (and the beat) do not dominate the sound. Second - the guy is a good singer. Third - the songs are original and the lyrics are more complex then I thought... |

I'll Have To Find Another Girl
|
Always loved this song from "The Merseyside Sound" LP on the "Stereo Spectrum Records" label. The copyright says 1962 - but there are covers of Beatle songs from 1963 & '64. It says on the label: "In Authentiphonic Stereo Process" - I believe it! Photo of the LP here! |

I'm Not A Bad Guy
|
When Buddy Holly died this band lost their identity. Their search for a new one is documented on the 30 track best of The Liberty Years, where you can hear them trying out different forms of rock & roll, from Texas Rock to Stones inspired rock to the poppyest pop. It's interesting. Jerry Alison is a really under-rated drummer. |
