Photo is from a taping for the Larry Kane Show in Houston.

The photo below is from a “Young Rascals” (later known as “The Rascals”) concert we opened up for. The venue was the Coliseum in Houston. None of the amps were miked and stage monitors were something we didn't have.

The P.A. consisted of a cluster of Altec Voice-of-the-Theater speakers suspended above the center of the arena (probably 150 feet from us). It worked fine for announcing a rodeo but wasn't conducive to playing and singing because of the delay.

We also opened for The Jimi Hendrix Experience (the early performance only...they did 2 shows) at the Music Hall on February 18th, 1968.

Steve Young Plus – 1973 – Beaumont, Tx

Mark Eilzondo, Steve Young . Gera;d Pierce.

Steve Young probably taught me more about music than anyone I ever worked with. I'm very grateful that i got to work with him. He was a great singer, musician, entertainer and friend. Steve passed away in 2010. I miss him.

The Stricklin-Pierce Band – 1975 – Panther Hall – Ft. Worth, Tx

The photo is from the only gig we played with steel-guitarist Cal Freeman. The guitar player, Arvel Stricklin, and I worked together previously at the Cellar.

Joe Don Silvers & Lois Johnson – 1983-85

This photo was taken in Chicago during a stint at a club called “Nashville North” in 1983. Joe Don Silvers is a great front man/entertainer and songwriter. His wife, Lois Johnson, was and still is my favorite female singer. She was the resident female vocalist on the Earnest Tubb TV show in the late sixties. Lois recorded 2 duet albums with Hank Williams Jr. and toured with him from 1970-73. Lois passed away in 2014. I'm honored that I considered a part of Lois and Don's musical family for a while.
