Results for Cold Blood

Emerging in the Summer of Love, Cold Blood with Joplin-esque lead singer Lydia Pense frequently played the Fillmore Auditorium, and the San Francisco-based funk band's blaring horn section and soulful guitar licks often drew comparisons to their Bay Area cronies, the Tower of Power.

We’re the original white boys, you’re the colonials.” The May 5, 1979 RS “Random Notes” item, reported from information offered by Bramlett, gives this as a general pronouncement to the “barroom crowd”; in other reconstructions, it is a response to a fan’s questions.
