Sugarloaf Live 1975 Album
This album was produced by original guitarist of Sugarloaf, Bob Webber and Aaron Raymond, son of late Sugarloaf bassist Bob Raymond. This is the last known recording of the original Sugarloaf band, and the only Live Recording ever released by the band.
After the discovery of the unknown tapes, Bob shared the idea of the production of a new album with Aaron and collaboration began. Over-the-top versions of "Green Eyed Lady" and "Don't Call Us" eclipse the studio recordings and reveal the brute, musical force of these four musicians - Jerry Corbetta, lead vocals and keyboard; Bob Webber, guitar; Bob Raymond, bass; and Myron Pollock, drums.
In addition to masterful soulful and nostalgic sound, the album boasts never-before-seen photos of the band. This is truly a "new" treasure of the past and the producers are very excited to see it come into fruition and to share it with music fans, collectors, nostalgia lovers and all who can appreciate the excellent musicianship Sugarloaf had to offer.
Sugarloaf Live 1975 will officially be released on Sept. 8. 2022 - exactly 10 years after the band's induction into the Colorado Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
