I found a cd I had burned awhile back from an "LP"
remember them? Scratches and all! Anyway...the album is called "The Journey Is Worth The Reward" by local Quincy band called "The Drive"! I followed them pretty religiously back in my clubbing, hard drinking days of the 80's! It is a great album...all the songs are great and the Gibson Les-Paul played by Jamie Walker the lead player and singer is just the best local guitar I had ever heard. They never made it big and I was always surprised by that...probably poorly managed though they did play on the Tonight Show once. The band broke up and a few members went on to start the band "The Swinging Steaks"....anyone ever see/hear these bands?
Any local favorites you can recall from your youth?
