NITEHAWK - Nitehawk (USA '81 Southern Rock)

 

Nitehawk "Nitehawk" (Nitehawk Productions, 1981) (LP)

(Produced by Andy Van Lendt & Phil Van Lente)
Southern rockers from 'way up north. This Michigan band included Bob Green, Bob Lacy, Michael Taylor, and Russ Van Hall, with a couple of other guys chiming in at the studio. Lacy and Taylor were the principal songwriters, though drummer Bob Green contributes two songs. The album is almost all original material, with a couple of cover songs, "Massachusetts" (by the Bee Gees) and "All My Life" (from Uriah Heep). Not sure exactly where these guys were from, though they recorded the album at a studio in Grand Rapids.

RED RYDER BAND - The Red Ryder Band (USA '78 COUNTRY ROCK)

 The Red Ryder Band "The Red Ryder Band" (Decameron Records, 1978) (LP)

(Produced by J. M. McCarthy)
A modestly shaggy, relatively clean-cut outlaw twangband from the Great Plains... Although they recorded in Omaha, Nebraska, this was an Iowa-based band... The group included lead singer Jack Dahlke on guitar, Betty Frank (guitar and piano), Duane Gallagher (bass), Steve Mether (drums) and Jon Smith (lead guitar and mandolin) with additional steel guitar by Chuck Lettes. Except for a cover of Gram Parsons' "Sin City," all the songs are originals, including six tracks credited to Mr. Dahlke. This band was together for several years, and like many beloved local groups they fanned out into various subsequent bands and seem to have done a reunion show or two over the years.
