Story behind the song
The Original Onyx. James Latimer - Lead Guitar, & Vocals. Tony Wiese - Guitar, & Lead Vocals. Jack Mondlak - Keyboards. Fred Janus - Saxophone. John Flannagan - Bass Guitar. Bob Holzner - Drums, & Percussion. This song was recorded live at the Parkside Inn on August 14, 1979. This song featured Jack Mondlak's keyboard solo and James Latimer's guitar solo. Recorded by Mike Mills with assistance from Phil Sypniewski. This song was written by Jack Mondlak and originally recorded during July of 1978. We wrote and recorded a number of songs after our original guitarist, Glenn Spence, quit the band. James Latimer was in the band for a brief time after Glenn quit but James left the band after a short period. This song was originally written and recorded during that time when we decided to continue as a four-piece band. James did come back a few months later to again be in the band and we stayed together through our final gig in 1980 (reunion show). James' contribution as lead guitarist helped propel this song to the version you now hear on this site. We also re-arranged this song to include a keyboard solo by Jack Mondlak and a guitar solo by James Latimer. We also went into a blues section and ever sang a verse of B.B. King’s, “My Own Fault Baby.” This vocal part of the song has been edited out of the song found here on this site for copyright purposes.
