Wax of the Week #108...Bill Wray And His Showband Royale: For Our Friends (1970)
Louisiana pseudo-lounge that’s a little grittier and non-clowny than most, including a fiery cover of Dylan’s “Dear Landlord,” a low key version of David Wiffen’s “Driving Wheel,” and the bluesy original “Everybody Boogie.” Wray had a 1976 LP on the MCA-associated Legend label, along with two early ’80s records on Liberty. Pretty fiery, six-minute+ “Try a Little Tenderness” done in the Otis Redding/Three Dog Night style, also.
