Breach of Lease (Bloodrock)

This song was a deep cut from an album by Bloodrock (known mainly for the song "DOA"). It was considered pretty heavy at the time, remembering that this was pre-heavy metal music days). This recording is from A Concert of Friends – October, 1972 (a benefit concert for an injured high school friend). The band playing is Hereafter.

Hey Jude – Concert of Friends

Interestingly, Bruce is on piano on this one. If the ending seems shorter than usual for live performances of this song, it's because I edited it and cut out a few of the repetitions. Jimi Oates sings the lead.

“Hey Jude – Concert of Friends”

I Left the City – 1974

One of the first songs Danny and Bruce wrote together. This version was recorded at Reflection Studio in Charlotte, NC in 1974. It was part of a four-song demo for Hit Attractions. We revived and modernized this song for the 2023 album Stevenson & Company "Out of Time"

“I Left the City – 1974”

From our demo for Hit Attractions recorded onstage at St. John's UMC with no audience (Summer 1973). Hereafter was: Danny Stevenson, Bruce Stevenson, Watson Pryor, Jimi Oates and Steve Guyer. The reel-to-reel tape was damaged and there is a part in the song where the recording fades away. The recording recovers and is worth listening to – a really good cover for us back then.

“Jesus Is Just Alright (1973)”

Mississippi Queen (1973)

From our demo for Hit Attractions recorded onstage at St. John's UMC with no audience (Summer 1973). Hereafter was: Danny Stevenson, Bruce Stevenson, Watson Pryor, Jimi Oates and Steve Guyer.

Ohio (Live at St. John’s 1971)

Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young's song was a commentary on the Kent State massacre – strange how brutality towards protesters is in the news again these days!

“Ohio”

Pretty Woman’s Gotta Crawl

OK – the most sexist song ever, written by Stev Guyer, but hey, we just played the songs back then! If you like the southern rock sound, and you 're a little egotistical, you'll love this one! This was one of the four songs we did as a demo for Hit Attractions in 1974.

“Pretty Woman’s Gotta Crawl”

Something

This classic Beatles tune from Abbey Road was one of our softer tunes, but still had some impact in a live performance. Sung beautifully by Dane, with Jimi on high harmony, this recording is from the Concert of Friends (October, 1972).

“Something”.

The Bathroom Song

Originally titled "Trapped for Life in a Bathroom by a Door That Don't Open Right" this nonsense song is just pure 1970's rock fun by our band, A L. Richard Band. Featuring Mike Fowler on lead guitar and Stev Guyer on lead vocals, this recording was made as part of a four-song demo for our agency (Hit Attractions) in the summer of 1974.

“The Bathroom Song”

Them Changes – Concert of Friends

A relatively unknown song now, Buddy Miles' "Them Changes" was very popular around the time of this concert (1972). Jimi sings lead – having the brass section added a great deal to the authentic sound of this classic.

“Them Changes”.

Trouble No More (1973)

We did a number of Allman Brothers songs – this one was not as well-known, but we played it really well. From the 1973 Demo for Hit Attractions recorded live at St. John's with no audience.

“Trouble No More (1973)”

Walk Away

This James Gang song was a staple at our Hereafter concerts in the early 70's. Stev Guyer sings the lead. This recording is from the Concert of Friends (October, 1972).

“Walk Away”

With a Little Help from My Friends – Concert of Friends

At Woodstock, Joe Cocker made this version of the Beatles' song the version every rock band wanted to do live. A fitting ending to an evening where friends came together to help a friend!

“With a Little Help”
