In addition to the title song, which Billy Price recorded with Roy Buchanan in 1974 on Roy's \"Livestock\" LP, this CD includes eight songs written especially for Billy by Swamp Dogg.\n\nAbout the Artist\n\nBilly Price has been thrilling east coast audiences with his brand of rhythm and blues for the past two decades. In his hometown of Pittsburgh, Pa., he is an institution. Price's popularity isn't hard to explain. As Geoffrey Himes of the Washington Post has said, \"Unlike so many blues revivalists, Price is not an imitation of older, better singers--he's the real thing.\"\nBilly Price first attracted national attention during his three-year association with guitarist Roy Buchanan. Price is the vocalist on two of Buchanan's LPs, That's What I'm Here For and Livestock. With Buchanan, Price toured the U.S. and Canada, playing such venues as Carnegie Hall in New York, the Newport Jazz Festival, the Roxy and the Troubadour in Los Angeles, and the Spectrum in Philadelphia. Price assembled Billy Price and the Keystone Rhythm Band in 1977. Before their breakup in 1990, the band recorded four critically acclaimed LPs and developed a reputation as one of the most exciting touring bands in the U.S.\nPrice formed The Billy Price Band in 1990. In addition to performing popular songs from Price's years with Buchanan and the Keystone Rhythm Band, the Billy Price Band features new interpretations of blues, R \u0026amp; B, and soul classics. The band currently consists of Lenny Smith (guitar), Willie Franklin (bass), H.B. Bennett (drums), John Burgh (keyboards), Ralph Guzzi (trumpet), Eric DeFade (tenor sax) and Curtis Johnson (baritone and tenor sax).\nIn April 1997, Billy Price released The Soul Collection, which featured a duet by Price and his friend and mentor Otis Clay on Clay's \"That's How It Is,\" as well as background vocals by veteran Chicago vocalists Theresa Davis (former member of the Emotions), Robin Robinson, and Dianne Madison.\nIn Living Blues, September\/October 1997, Bill Dahl called The Soul Collection \"an inspired stroll through the glorious history of soul music [invested with] uncommon passion and authenticity.\" In the April 25, 1997 edition of the Washington Post, Mike Joyce called The Soul Collection \"an R \u0026amp; B homage full of revealing and compelling performances...Price is a terrifically expressive soul singer,\" says Joyce, \"one who conveys both the pain and the pleasure in these choice songs.\"\nPrice's latest release is Can I Change My Mind on Green Dolphin Records, produced in Los Angeles by Jerry \"Swamp Dogg\" Williams.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00003Q06R\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00003Q06R.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Price, Billy\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
