Story behind the song
The Original Onyx. James Latimer - Lead Guitar, & Vocals. Tony Wiese - Guitar, & Lead Vocals. Jack Mondlak - Keyboards. John Flannagan - Bass Guitar. Bob Holzner - Drums, & Percussion. This song was recorded during rehearsals at the Granada Theatre on the far north side of Chicago somewhere around August thru November in 1978. Sadly this theater has since been torn down and is now a parking garage. This song was written by Tony Wiese and was introduced when Glenn Spence was still the lead guitarist in the band. We played this tune at some of the earliest Parkside Inn shows with James Latimer in the band but it was eventually dropped from the set being it did not fit in well with our more progressive rock style (I think this was the reason - many lost brain cells ago, lol). Recorded by Mike Mills with assistance from Phil Sypniewski.
