BLACK STALLION - FEATURING BENNY MAHAN (USA '83 Country Rock)

A country-oriented album featuring Springfield, Missouri's Benny Mahan (1944-2009) a regionally popular vocalist who started his career back in the 'Sixties, singing blues and soul, and was a longtime member of the local R&B band Granny's Bathwater, which toured nationally. This twangy album marked a real shift in direction, though Mahan's bluesy roots are never far from the surface. Black Stallion included Benny Mahan on vocals, with Kenny Cox (bass and guitar), Randy Gipson (steel guitar),Rex Meredith (lead guitar), Stan Smith (drums), and Frank Westbrook on piano and keyboards... Not sure how long the group was together, though this seems to have been their only record. All but three songs were originals written or co-written by Benny Mahan, with the exceptions being "Cajun Keyboards" an instrumental by Westbrook, and covers of "Since You've Been Gone" and Wayne Carson's "Bugle Ann." Mahan's tunes include tracks such as "Black Satin Stallion," "Honky Tonk Blood" and "Swamper," a tune he re-recorded two decades later with the band Howie & The Hellcats.
