Baby Hold On Baby Hold On
In honor of the late Eddie Money here's Larry (and me) singing one of his biggest hits. This was when the band was still 3 pieces, listen to Glenn play the synth part on bass. Killer.

Dance With Me Dance With Me
It was the 70's and Disco was....still around. This is a song by Peter Brown. Another of the "Sunburst origins" songs, this is an early recording when the band was still just Glenn, Greg, Larry, and Bob. We had a LOT of fun!

Happy Anniversary Happy Anniversary
A song by Little River Band. This was the beginning of Sunburst, before Mike Cooley and Les Taylor arrived. Just three pieces; guitar, bass, and drums. A HUGE thanks to Billy Moore for giving me access to these tapes. Thanks Bullah!!!

Special Lady Special Lady
This is the song most people remember when they think of Sunburst. Another Greg Land original featuring vocals by Larry and Les. Also, check out Les channeling his inner Elliot Randall on the guitar solo. From the album "Homespun".

The Bob Seger classic torch song, and Larry smokes it! Great piano by Mike Cooley. Gregg, Glenn, and Bob as The Embarrassing Stains.

Bound By Love Bound By Love
An original written by Greg Land. Greg also sings harmony with Larry on this, and, of course, killed it on the drums. We had a blast with this one. My profound thanks to Judy Dunn for providing the original recording of this, it's the best I've heard

Back In Love Back In Love
Glenn Little. "Big Boy". "The Legend". Nothing else needs to be said. Nobody else could hold down a groove and belt it out like him. Nobody. This is a new version just found with much better sound quality. Thanks again, Billy!!

Baby Fat Baby Fat
What can I say, it was a different time. No disrespect intended to anyone, but if this song offends you pretend it's called "Baby Rats".

Struttin' My Stuff Struttin' My Stuff
Mike Cooley proves he was "King of the Clavinet" on this Elvin Bishop song. BTW: there IS some ham in Birmingham. Just sayin'...

Hot Blooded Hot Blooded
More than anything, Sunburst was a Rock n' Roll band. This one was right in our wheelhouse. Have a listen as Mike Cooley proves there is nothing else better than a REAL Hammond played through a REAL Leslie cabinet.

I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You
A classic hit by The Alan Parsons Project. This must have been later in the night; the band is playing so loudly the tape is totally saturated in places.

Hot Child In The City Hot Child In The City
Another change of pace, a Nick Gilder song. Variety was the only constant in the set list. Of all known recordings this probably is the best quality.

Cool harmonies, rock n roll guitar, a great vocal from Larry, and a blood curdling scream from Glenn Little. What more do you need?

Slow Burn Slow Burn
This was one of our favorite songs, originally by Louisiana's LeRoux. A set ender with a solo from everyone: Greg, Glenn (his solo would shake the room), Les, Mike, then Bob. HUGE fun!!

Shadow Dancing Shadow Dancing
Larry Gentry could sing anything, as this song proves. Also features killer bass from Glenn, Mike Cooley's amazing keyboards, and Greg Land at his funkiest.
