James Gang : Newborn 1975



James Gang were a rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio in 1966.

The original band members were drummer Jimmy Fox, bassist Tom Kriss, guitarist Ronnie Silverman, keyboardist Phil Giallombardo, and guitarist Greg Grandillo, who was quickly replaced by Dennis Chandler. Bill Jeric replaced Silverman when he entered the service. After Chandler left, the group featured Glen Schwartz.

Newborn is the eighth album by James Gang, released in 1975, and the only released on Atlantic Records. Guitarist Tommy Bolin and singer Roy Kenner left the band, and were replaced by guitarist Richard Shack and vocalist Bubba Keith. Notable for being perhaps the most boogie-based James Gang release and for featuring an interesting cover of the Elvis Presley classic 'Heartbreak Hotel'. Both Newborn and it's more accomplished follow-up Jesse Come Home have been reissued on one cd by Wounded Bird Records.
