“Omar and the Howlers - Dancing in the Canebrake”
DH bought that one for this song:

OMAR & THE HOWLERS (Live 1986) - MISSISSIPPI HOODOO MAN
For some reason, he reminds me of Wolfman Jack.
Thanks. I remember that one but didn't know who sang it. It's on my buy list for next month when I go buy some CD's.
Wolfman is on a song by The Guess Who. "Clap for the Wolfman".
Here's a one hit wonder from the past:

You know, after all of the posts here, I do belive you're the first to bring up The Marshall Tucker Band - Good stuff!
I don't know why, but it reminded me of this song.
She’s a lot easieer on the eyes than Meat Loaf! He was in Rocky Horror Picture Show, wasn’t he?

Nazareth - Hair of the Dog

Oh yeah, that was a great song!
I like this one too, impossible utopia but good none the less...
The Youngbloods - Get Together
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4fWN6VvgKQ
Player - Baby Come Back
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hn-enjcgV1o
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Player_%28band%29
But Ronn Moss left Player in 1981 to pursue a full-time acting career. (He continues to play the role of Ridge Forrester on the soap opera, The Bold and the Beautiful.)
I read somewhere that their flute player came about from hiring a sax/keyboard player Jerry Eubanks. They asked him if he could also play a flute and he said yea. He'd never touched one before LOL.. Obviously he learned real fast.
MTB is still around touring. The only original member in the current band is vocalist Doug Gray. Both the Caldwell Brothers have passed on.
I didn't know that, how interesting. My ex loved that show.
There are several videos of Ambrosia on that YT channel. They did some great stuff too, I wish I could find a decent version of Holding on To Yesterday there.
They had a lot of hits, good music but I don't have time to post them right now, gotta run.
Yea I think he was in it. I went to see it one time with some friends back in the late 70's. Came back drenched and covered with rice LOL. The song makes me laugh when I hear it. A lot of my firends ended up that way.
I got a Nazareth CD too.. Thanks to second hand music stores I have a sizeable collection of CD's.
with a touch of “The Beatles”. . . you wouldn’t forget “The Beatles or WOULD you. . .

“The Beatles”. . . what about “Spinal Tap” (Sunshine might want to hide the little ones’ eyes on this one, but it is funny)
