MICKEY LARSON - The Mickey Larson Band (USA '77 Country Rock)

Though sometimes incorrectly identified as from Minnesota, this blues-twang bar-band was actually from Eau Claire, Wisconsin (the record label was in Minnesota, but the band were 100% pure cheeseheads...) The record features liner notes from another local musician Will Jennings, also from Eau Claire, who praises Larson as having the new best band in town. Piano player Mickey Larson (1947-2004) was a prolific and prodigious musician, playing in numerous rock, blues and country bands, leading his own group and supporting national acts on tour through the Midwest. As a teen he co-founded the Great Lakes rock band Tongue, which morphed into the Mother Truckers, and gradually became known primarily as a blues musician. An avid motorcyclist, Larson moved to California not long after recording this album, where he worked for Harley-Davidson for several years before returning to Wisconsin. As far as I know, this was his only album recorded under his own name.
