  • Jim "Dandy" Mangrum and Ruby Starr ham it up onstage in this 1976 clip. And, yes -- you didn't imagine it -- that was James Brown at the beginning introducing the band!
    The song Fistful of Love appeared on BOA's album Balls of Fire.

    RIP Ruby. I fell in love with her when I was 14. She was better than good. Wish we all could go back to the Seventies. Best Decade to be a teenager.

    A classic tv video of Black Oak Arkansas doing "Fistful Of Love" live. Jim and Ruby have some fun together here. The public seen them like Li'l Abner and Daisy Mae come to life. This was one of several songs they performed on the show that night. And of course The Godfather of Soul himself introduces the band. It don't get no better than that.

    Balls Of Fire was a great sounding BOA LP. Tommy Aldridge's drumming was recorded great. Perhaps it and Race With The Devil (Capricorn!) are among my favorites. This is a great performance by the band. Tommy played on one of Ruby's solo LPs. Black Oak Arkansas were a unique band to say the least!

    RUBY STAR was a "star" that went dim way too soon. Saw her many, many times 30 years ago when she was traveling with "Grey-Star". Loved her & miss her voice.

    Wow what a load of funk ! Great presentation . For it's time the pan shoot to the audience seems baffled . But it was the mid 70's when disco was storming the charts and shows . In general I have fallen back into the classic local mid -states band with admiration !

    Jim Dandy is who David Lee Roth modeled his onstage persona on.

    • @KearaJay
      @KearaJay 10 лет назад +1

      Quite possible.I had always heard that Roth patterned his style a lot from Tommy Bolin(late guitarist of James Gang and Deep Purple fame).

      Which one sucks, though? My bet is on 'If An Angel'; 'Street Party' is mostly rubbish too.

    • @awickedtribe
      @awickedtribe 9 лет назад +1

      Damian Crudden ... I will agree Street Party wasn't their best but 'If an Angel came to live with you, would you make Her feel at Home?' is one of my favorites... Rather be Sailing and parts of 'Race with the Devil' would be my guess

    It’s amazing how the early 70s crowds just watched these bands like Brandy you’re a fine girl what a good wife you would be such a fine girl and the crowd just trying to hang out then a band came out name kiss for years later and showed what rock ‘n’ roll fashion and show an explosion and entertainment was all about everybody else just watched him play in class because they finish the song

    My sister turned me on to BOA way back in the '70's. The first time I heard Jim Dandy's voice I thought of the Bugs Bunny cartoon "Hillbilly Hare" and the scene where the two hillbillies are looking for Bugs and one says to to the other "that there rabbit critter's bound to be around here somewhere on accounta I sees his footyprints".

      violent shemp - perhaps David Lee Roth? I'm seeing a lot of similarities. Creepy? Yes, but I like this. Never really knew enough about this band and Ruby's voice is almost as, if not stronger, than Janis Joplin. Just saying.
