Rick Nelson & The Stone Canyon Band – Rick Sings Nelson / Rudy The Fifth (1998) BGO Records - BGOCD441

 

MP3/320/224MB
Country Rock

Rick Nelson formed The Stone Canyon Band in 1969 to transition from his teen idol persona to a respected country-rock musician. The original lineup featured Randy Meisner (bass, later of the Eagles), Tom Brumley (steel guitar), Allen Kemp (guitar), and Patrick Shanahan (drums). Key albums include In Concert at the Troubadour (1969), Rick Sings Nelson (1970), and Garden Party (1972).  Nelson died in a plane crash in 1985, and while the band’s name was officially dropped after 1975, the group remained a staple of his live performances until his death.
