Taking a look back at the Steve Miller Band in 1978, performing at the Dane County Coliseum in Madison, Wisconsin.
Steve Miller's first band was started in 1966 and has had many transformations throughout the years. He is still playing! He was Wisconsin born and his Godfather was the great Les Paul!
The version shown here has two personal favorite musicians in the band. They are Norton Buffalo who passed in 2009 and Leslie West who passed just last year.
This band was always having a fun time filling halls, arenas and what ever festival they played.
Steve has sold a lot of records and his greatest hits 1974-1978 album, that was released in 1978, sold over 13 million copies! One of them is downstairs and was recently played!
The photo with Leslie West is not the greatest but he was an amazing player so I had to include it. He and Steve had a lot of fun playing together at this show. They also played together a year earlier at Milwaukee's Summerfest.
Enjoy a look at the guys in 1978.
Thanks,

Well what the heck?! Didn't I click save, after writing my blog last week on Indy Car driver Willy T. Ribbs?! I just noticed that it didn't appear for you all to see! Sorry about that but a couple weeks of Hunter Ronson isn't too bad, right?
I will save that for some future blog because I am excited about this week's! Found some negatives in the closet while cleaning last week. They are of the Steve Miller Band, 1978 at the Dane County Coliseum in Madison, Wisconsin!!!
Steve and Norton Buffalo were always putting on a good show in those days. Norton's look in photo number ten is priceless! Miss that guy... He could play a harmonica REALLY good! I even included a couple pictures of special guest Leslie West. They are not that sharp but it is Leslie West!
If you want to have fun with me, caption photo number two! What is Steve saying do you think? I remember actually!
Enjoy a look at a great show when we all were young.
Thanks,
Rich Zimmermann
