What Are You Listening To?

[SteveO]

Not familiar with these guys except for the single Kiss You All Over which I love !

from my library (vinyl)



Local boys hit the big time. These guys are from this area and played the bar circuit in Richmond/Lexington back in
the 70's. When I moved from the area they were the house band for a local bowling alley/bar. Went to see them a
couple of times with a friend who was friends with leader JP Pennington. Back then they were mostly a country covers
band. Got signed and quickly went pop. Had a big pop hit with Kiss You All Over. That's the only thing I remember.
Funny thing is they are considered country by most. Not a thing on this one I would call country. And it's some
pretty bad pop. Only three tracks I can handle. But what the hell do I know? Album was a #2 on the country charts,
with four #1 country singles. A perfect example of where me and country parted ways.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
