  1. This group came out of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. We recorded at the CBS Studios in New York; not LA. Al Lawrence was our producer and he was in New York; not LA. The group was comprised of:

    Basil Matychak on keyboards
    Bobbie Benson on 12-string guitar
    Gene Coggshall on bass
    Rich Vitagliano on drums
    and myself, Steve Newhouse on 6-string guitar

  3. Steve Newhouse? of Rasputin and the Mad Monks, a summer all-star band that played "Do You Like Good Music" at the fraternity where the Maxwell Summer Vacation School was housed? I recall that evening well -- Newhouse zipping off on a motorcycle between sets, and Marshall Streib (sp?) leading the group...
