This week's blog is about my good friends, Heartsfield. I found some more negatives in the closet as we continue to clean.

These photos I believe are from the club called Teddy's in Milwaukee. Not positive on that so any confirmation on where this is would be appreciated.

One of the photos shows Paul Green, an old dj from the WQFM days here in Milwaukee. Curious where he is now. Great beard he has here!

Heartsfield had several albums and continues today with Fred Dobrinski from the original band.

Enjoy a look at the old days of Heartsfield.

Thanks,

Last week we looked at the Marshall Tucker Band in 1975. This week we have a few photos of them with Willie Nelson at Summerfest on July 3, 1978.

There are more photos of their trucks and buses than the band because we weren't allowed to shoot that night!

I got a few shots from the edge of the stage and the crew tour bus backstage. Love the logo of  "the road crew the chosen few".

Enjoy! Next week we will look at  pictures of John Oates that I shot last week.

Thanks,

On July 20, 1972, Charlie Pride and his band came to Milwaukee's Summerfest for a show.

Charlie and his band were having a successful tour with his 1971 hit "Kiss an Angel Good Mornin". It was his biggest hit but he did have 30 others on the Billboard charts.

The photos of his band here are interesting and fun to look at! Anybody know who the steel guitar player is???

I know that Charlie loved baseball and tried to be a pitcher with the Yankees in 1953. He lost the magic on his fastball and the Yankees sent him to Fond du Lac, Wisconsin to play in their Class D team! Never knew that!

Enjoy some photos of Charlie and his band at Summerfest in 1972.
