Lone Star 1993 Lone Star + Firing On All Six (1976-1977)
(mp3 – 320 Kbps; 171 Mb.)
Formed in Cardiff, Wales, mid-1975, by ex-UFO guitarist Paul "Tonka" Chapman, who recruited other British musicians, Kenny Driscoll (vocals), Tony Smith (guitar), Rick Worsnop (keyboards), Peter Hurley (bass) and Dixie Lee (drums). Signed to CBS, they subsequently secured a support slot with Ted Nugent, gaining enough exposure to ensure healthy sales for their UK- charting (#47) eponymous debut (produced by Roy Thomas Baker) in 1976.
With a heavy pomp-rock sound not too far removed from Led Zeppelin, early Queen and Deep Purple, the group digressed from their trademark fantasy-based lyrics for a cover of The Beatles' "She Said, She Said".
With frontman John Sloman having stepped in for Driscoll, the group completed a second set, "Firing On All Six" (1977).
Although this scored a higher chart position (#36), unfortunately Lone Star were just a few years out of time; punk was at its zenith, while the NWOBHM was just around the corner, thus the group's inevitable demise. They broke up in late 1978 when Chapman re-joined UFO.
Sloman later joined Uriah Heep, and Dixie Lee replaced Clive Edwards in Wild Horses.
