Subject: RE: Forgotten rock bands of the 70s
Blasts from the past, indeed. Captain Beyond and Dancing Madly Backwards was huge in my circle. I ran sound for Raven, a band in Louisville, when we opened for Hookfoot in Indianapolis. I got to do the onstage sound check with about 5,000 people in the audience waiting while we trouble shot a monitor problem. Yes, I broke a sweat. I believe those guys were Elton John's backup band?
Lost a girlfriend over Uriah Heep's lead singer. Long story, and I'm still holding a grudge.
How about the Pousette-Dart Band?
