A.B. Skhy - Ramblin' On (1970) (US)

A.B. Skhy

This San Francisco-based quartet included Dennis Geyer

(guitar), Howard Wales (keyboards), Jim Marcotte (bass) and

Terry Andersen (drums). A seven-piece horn section

supported the group on their debut album, a blues-based set

modelled on B.B. King and Bobby Bland. Following the

departures of Andersen and Wales, the remaining members

continued with newcomers Rick Jaeger (drums) and James

‘Curley’ Cooke (guitar). The latter was a founder member of

the Steve Miller Band, and a former colleague of Geyer in an

earlier group, Tim Davis And The Chordaires. Ramblin’ On

was produced by the notorious Kim Fowley. This informal

collection showcased the group’s instrumental muscle and

featured cameo performances from guitarist Elvin Bishop and

pianist Ben Sidran. However, the group failed to secure a

commercial success and broke up during sessions for a

projected third album. Founder member Wales later enjoyed a

brief association with the Grateful Dead, and recorded 1971’s

experimental Hooteroll with the latter’s guitarist, Jerry Garcia.
