The first time I heard this album, I was like “wow”. How did this person never get played on the radio! Frankie Miller has a great blues voice & McCullough on guitar is as good as any popular blues player….and the amazing boogie piano.
You might recognize his most covered song “Ain’t Got No Money” from this album, made popular by Bob Seger….
The band had a semi successful US tour then a disastrous UK tour..and the band dissolved.
