Southern Comfort (1970 Columbia Lp)


Southern Comfort consisted of Bob Jones (drums-vocals), John Wilmeth (trumpet-fluegel horn), Steve Funk (organ-piano), Art Stavro (bass), Rev. Ron Stallings (tenor sax-vocals), and Fred Olson (guitar). The band was also joined by John Kahn (piano), Charley Schoning (piano), and Gerald Oshita (flute-baritone sax).

"There are a bunch of different bands known as Southern Comfort. This particular band is composed of Mike Bloomfield and Nick Gravenites related sessionmen. Nick produced the album too. They got a very west-coasty blues rock sound kinda like Pacific Gas & Electric. However, they are sorta faceless and generic...but professional". (SleepObsessed RYM)

Hi from Cy
Just a gentle breeze of a listen and thanking you for the share.
I wonder how many took up the plaintive plea to "Come And Sit Down Beside Me"?
Regards
Cy from Pck.
