This was our band the summer before the 9th grade in 1970. "Cemetery Ridge". We had formed a year earlier the beginning of the 8th grade.
I had just bought my Ludwig Hollywood set. That's Barry Billings singing and playing guitar. Barry and I went on to eventually in 1977 tour In the "Cornelius Bros. And Sister Rose Band. Then Barry was in "The Shooter's". We performed as a duo after that. He has been doing some shows playing with "Jason Isbell" band lately.

Spring, 1971. I wish the kit had showed up in this shot. 1964 Ludwig OBP 12,12,16,20, Supra.
We all wish we had things from back in the day, drums kits, cars...........my dad had this Wurlizter Jukebox in the basement that played 45's, it was the awesome, I learned to play drums on that thing, where did it end up? he gave it away, along with all the records, I get sick when I think of it.

Cool. Two of my fav 70s tunes are "Treat Her Like a Lady" and "Too Late to Turn Back Now"....
I think I may have posted these before for some other thread, but here we are again. 1962 when the "core" of The Reactions first got together; 1964 when we filled in the group and got our matching jackets (hot!). Primarily an instrumental group, but we started doing some vocals when The Beatles came along.
