The original DLR... Jim Dandy from Black Oak Arkansas!

[BrownSound1]

Unfortunately this clip doesn't show how much Dave did borrow from Jim Dandy Mangrum.

BTW, that's Tommy Aldridge on the drums...

Thanks for the clip WARF.

[WARF]

No Prob...
That's all I could find of him on youtube.

[BrownSound1]

I found a slight example, but you'll have to sit through a Shawn Lane shred fest to get to it. Just listen to how Big Jim talks at the end of the clip.

Yep...I have an old Circus Magazine from the early 70's with Jim on the cover....Looks EXACTLY like Dave.

And just listen to Summertime....then Could This Be Magic...



Dave got alot from him...for sure.

[Panamark]

That Shawn Lane shreds like a MoFo !!

Shreds better than Ed.

So you could argue that these dudes influenced
Van Halen in many ways.

Jim Dandy to the rescue is a pretty ordinary song.
Did they have songs of substance ?
Or was it all flash ??

Van Halen (even if they were influenced by these dudes)
had great music.. Surely theres a better example of Jim Dandy
than that "Jim Dandy to the Rescue" song ???

If thats as good as it gets, well we know why Van Halen
sold millions of albums and Jim Dandy and co sold
thousands..

I had never heard of them in Australia....

[Panamark]

P.S. Brian, I already think you are crazy !

(In the nicest possible way !)

[Big Fat Sammy]

Oh shit...I was thinking of the wrong band...Summertime is Mungo Jerry. :D

Black Oak..they do "If Ya Wanna Get To Heaven, Ya Gotta Raise A Little Hell"

[ELVIS]

I don't see the connection...

Never did...

[Soul Reaper]

looks more like Rick Wakeman....

No, actually that was the Ozark Mountain Daredevils.


My favorite Black Oak songs are Dixie (instrumental that they tear up) Uncle Elijah, and Hot and Nasty.


Image wise, I see the resemblance. But the music, 2 different worlds.
