Speaking of Vernon Wray, I shared a number of the tracks from the lost Band Not Band compilation (see also: Goose Creek Symphony) back in January, via Sidecar: Transmission Eleven – but not all. If you’re new around here, the homemade comp was something I put together years ago, consisting of tunes from stylistically simpatico artists of the Band. This is one I always envisioned Manuel singing, Michael Martin Murphy’s “The Lights Of The City”, the track that closes his 1972 debut, Geronimo’s Cadillac.
this is a fine record. and yeah, Manuel would have done it justice.
