Way back in 1979, as best as I can remember, but the boys will correct me if I am wrong, a few of the well known players in the Lethbridge area got together to form a rock & roll dance band. We wanted people to dance and dance they did! We called the band Billy Nichol.

This was not the first iteration of this band, at least the name. Way back in 1967 or 68, there was another band by that name and featured Dan Dubé on piano, Lorin Goshinmon on drums, Dwayne “Dinky” Prosk on bass and myself on guitar. More about that incarnation in another post. This particular group featured Wally Pizzingrilli on bass and vocals, George Klimow on drums, Mark Boh on guitar and vocals, Dave Filchak on guitar and vocals. All of these guys were seasoned pros and a blast to play with.

I had forgotten how hard this band rocked! Good playing and good singing, especially considering the recording process back then. The recording is not bad but obviously there are gliches here and there. But it is fun!
