straight out of high school. We gained a
small degree of fame and recognition in the San
Francisco Bay Area, playing clubs and concerts.
After several good years, the band went by the
wayside as most did in those times. A couple of
years ago, "Irahs", "Good Times", and "Elephant",
and three other songs were re-released on RD Records , a Swiss Company, and went on sale
throughout Europe. There is a market there for
obscure (bad?) 1960's "San Francisco Sound"
bands. We finally get our 15 minutes of fame 30+
years later. Pretty cool, huh?
"Composite" is a shortened version of "Irahs",
"Good Times", and "Elephant", recorded in 1968.
"Church Street" and "Friendly Lady" were written by Larry Armstrong , leader of "Rowdy and the Rivets", an "outlaw" country bar band. We had some amazing times playing with some of the great players in the area, but I sometimes wonder how I survived those drives back from the gigs
