Good timing my friend just got that Dust album on CD only days back and we listened to it at work!

[Retro Hound]

Thanks, I'd never heard of most of these. I really liked Dust and Open Mind.

Alright, here are three (somewhat) lesser knowns that were a regular part of my 70's rotation...

Dust were one of my faves from long ago. They were fresh out of high school when they recorded their first LP and didn't go anywhere as Dust, by '72 they were gone. But besides having two of the best album covers ever, the drummer Marc Bell, became Marky Ramone and bassist Kenny Aarronson, having been a top NY session player for decades was also with Derringer in the later 70s and is doing the current reunion tour w/Rick. He was also in Brian Setzer's Radiation Ranch band that played the first Live Aid. Guitarist Ritchie Wise teamed with producer Kenny Kerner for the first few Kiss LPs then vanished.

Speaking of DP, God I wish Ritchie was still into tearing it up!
Note the 1/2" vibrato bar. He kept breaking them and asking his tech to make them sturdier. The guy made this and said "if you break this one I don't want to know".

Rare to see him ripping on a 335.
