After ten minutes, Szymczyk faded the track out, but Walsh was still going strong. Nevertheless, they were talented improvisers, as the open-ended album closer, Jerry Ragavoy and Mort Shuman's "Stop," made clear. Dale Peters replaced Kriss on bass for the band's second and third albums. 2 The band went through a variety of line-up changes until they recorded their first album as a power trio consisting of Joe Walsh (guitars, lead vocals), Tom Kriss (bass), and Jim Fox (drums). But the otherwise promising "Fred," which followed, broke down into a pedestrian jazz routine, suggesting that the band was trying to cram too many influences onto one record and sometimes into one song. James Gang was an American rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio in 1966. If "Wrapcity (i.e., Rhapsody) in English," a minute-long piano and strings interlude, seems incongruous in retrospect, recall that this was an eclectic era. Walsh's "Take a Look Around" must have made an impression on Pete Townshend during the period before the album's release when the James Gang was opening for the Who since Townshend borrowed it for the music he was writing for the abortive Lifehouse follow-up to Tommy. But in addition to the blues rock there were also touches of pop and progressive rock, mostly from Walsh who displayed a nascent sense of melody, not to mention some of the taste for being a cutup that he would display in his solo career. The group had written some material, but they were still something of a cover band, and the disc included their extended workouts on Buffalo Springfield's "Bluebird" and the Yardbirds' "Lost Woman," the latter a nine-minute version complete with lengthy guitar, bass, and drum solos. The heavy rock scene of the period was given to extensive jamming, and four tracks ran more than six minutes each. All dates are here.The James Gang's debut LP, Yer' Album, was very much a first record and very much a record of its time. Says the band's John Gallagher, "There are a few songs on the album we never got to ever play live so that’s gonna be a blast!" Dates are with Riot Act, who will be performing "a Riot repertoire from their classic era (1977-1982)" and include a show at Brooklyn's Market Hotel on October 21.
