Train of Thought

Saw these guys about 15 years ago in a nightclub. Haven't heard much of them since...Bones of Contention is a six-piece explosion of sound, energy, and excitement. This CD contains all original compositions in the style of "Grateful Dead" and "Little Feat". They are a Jam-band that gained a well-deserved reputation as one of the Mid-West's finest live acts. They use twin guitars and a B3 organ for that psychedelic big sound.For ten years the band developed a unique style of arrangement and performance, which is evident on their second release-"Train of Thought". Think psychedelic blues/rock with a touch of country. Yes sir--this was the bands peak, captured with emotion and vitality. The band has never sounded better, with the original line up intact. Here is the sound of drive and celebration, with songs that run, stroll, laugh, and jump. Bones of Contention : Bob Parduhn on lead/slide guitar and vocals, Rob Giannattiasio on drums, Annie Perry on vocals and percussion, Paul Countryman on guitar and vocals, Jeff Gordon on bass, and of course engineer Scott Finch on piano, organ, and vocals.
