Bruce Springsteen & the E St Band- Independence Day- Atlanta 9-30-78
Maybe one of the reasons that Bruce Springsteen scored his first #1-seller in 1980 for the double album The River is because he had been road-testing some of the material in concert for years, such as this performance of “Independence Day”in 1978.
Kinks- One for the Road 45th Anniversary- Ray Davies
“I’m probably the worst musician in the band,” admits Ray Davies of The Kinks In the Studio on the forty-fifth anniversary of The Kinks live album “One for the Road”. “They’re very good players, and this record shows them off as players as well.” Part one of my classic rock interview.
Doobie Brothers- What Were Once Vices…/Stampede 50th- Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons
The surprise success from “Black Water” afforded the Doobie Brothers some creative license on their next album, “Stampede”, released in April 1975. But as you will hear from Patrick Simmons, Tom Johnston, and the late Doobie drummer Mike Hossack, the non-stop grind of five years of one-nighters, stopping only long enough to record the next album, was starting to create stress fractures in the foundation of the band which would sideline Tom Johnston with a bleeding ulcer and, ultimately, alter the sound of the Doobie Brothers for the next decade.
Doobie Brothers- Stampede 50th- Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons 4-28
Even a half-century after its April 1975 release, the two things I recall most about “Stampede”, the fifth album from San Jose’s Doobie Brothers, was the duality evident in the band’s emerging sound. There was the noticeable sophistication in the sweeping symphonic “I Cheat the Hangman”, but in stark contrast to the Doobie Brothers’ big hit with the Motown cover of “Take Me in Your Arms (Rock Me for a Little While)”. Band co-founders Tom Johnston and Patrick Simmons join me In the Studio for the golden anniversary of “Stampede” by the Doobie Brothers the week of April 28.
Lynyrd Skynyrd- Nuthin’ Fancy 50th- the late Gary Rossington, Leon Wilkeson, Ed King
“Nuthin’ Fancy” indicated a creative well running low for Lynyrd Skynyrd which would only worsen soon on “Gimme Back My Bullets”. No doubt the non-stop pace of nearly constant touring partly was to blame, but there was something darker and even more sinister which no one outside the band knew, nor anyone in it would admit. This tour had casualties…United once again in Eternity, Gary Rossington, Leon Wilkeson, & Ed King played it like they felt it here In the Studio.
