ROB SEZ: In case anyone thinks Repercussion has turned into a "re-post only" blog, let today's post stand as a corrective. At least once a month, I will continue to post new material that hasn't appeared here before. Even if you're not currently a fan of NRBQ, this would be a good one to try if you're curious about this great American band — still in business 50 years after its founding.
REPERCUSSION: NRBQ has direct and indirect ties to The dB's. In his recent book A Spy In the House of Loud, Chris Stamey says NRBQ was "one of our favorite bands" that played with "irresistible verve and superior musicianship." Chris adds, "looking back, I think the dB's 'punk roots' at the time [ie, the late 1970s and early 1980s] were actually NRBQ and Richard Thompson as well as Television." Years later, Chris enlisted NRBQ founder/leader/vocalist/keyboard virtuoso Terry Adams to play on his 1991 solo album Fireworks. And as blog reader Pablo pointed out, both bands were signed to Bearsville Records at the time of the label's demise in the 1980s.
