LORD TRACY SHORT BIO

Way back in mists of time, 1985 to be exact, I think when Abe Lincoln
was still President, was born the singular Rock Band named Lord Tracy.
Three transplanted Memphians, guitarist Jimmy Rusidoff (Southern
Creed), bassist Kinley "Barney" Wolfe and drummer Chris Craig (both of Black
Oak Arkansas and Texas band Lightning) stood waiting in a disgustingly
dilapidated rehearsal hall in downtown Dallas. In walks singer Terry
Glaze, recently departed from Pantera. He grabs the microphone, does
his best Elvis holler, the guitar shrieks, the bass goes boom, the drums go
wham. The four musicians looked upon their noise, and they knew that it
was good. Fame, fortune, and everlasting fun surely awaited them. And
it did, sorta.

The band landed a record deal with MCA-backed label UNI and recorded
their first album in 1989 (they didn't call them "CeeDees" back then!).
They went from getting fired from every club but one in Memphis to
being adored by thousands, if not zillions, of fawning admirers. Tours,
videos, interviews, and many exciting and unprintable events ensued.
But alas, 'twas not to last. The usual pressures of life, management, the
road, recording companies, and the inevitable fights over who would get
the last corny dog caused a breakup of the band in 1991.

All things must pass, and then come around again, for in the summer of
2004 the guys buried all hatchets and re-formed for several glorious
shows in Memphis and Dallas. So much fun was had that the fellows
decided that even though they now resided at the four separate Corners
of the Earth they would do all they could to keep Lord Tracy alive
forevermore. New CD's of unreleased tunes, plus plans for more shows
and new recordings in the immediate future have stoked much excitement in
the rock-n-roll community. Not that the guys are any more mature or
anything.

They're just now smart enough to each bring their own boxes of frozen
corny dogs.

‘Music City 411- Robin Gibb Tribute

By: Andrew Vaughan

It’s truly heartbreaking to see the pain Robin Gibb’s family is going through right now. The Bee Gees singer is in a coma after suffering with liver cancer and most recently pneumonia. Of course, several big name pop acts have passed away recently- Davy Jones of The Monkees probably the most recent. Now I knew Davy to talk to but I’d never met his family. Which is why hearing about the Gibb family’s pain surrounding Robin is so difficult to handle.
