FIVE DOLLAR SHOES - Rain Train / Love Song (Neighborhood 1972)
A great single from a band that never received a great consideration in the New York City glam rock scene. Five Dollar Shoes included Gregg Diamond (also member of Jobriath backing band, The Creatures), Mike Millius, Tom Graves, Jim Gregory and Scott Woody. In addition to this record they also released another single called "Your Rock'n'Roll Band" and one LP that was recorded at the legendary Electric Lady Studios in New York City´s Greenwich Village.
Produced by Peter Schekeryk.
Apparently Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of KISS, (then in WICKED LESTER), were the backing vocalists on the Five Dollar Shoes' studio sessions.
ReplyDeleteHave this single (Rain Train) and will never part with it.

We called this the "best Stones album without horns" back when it was released
