Join jay Ferguson tonight
bngland lian and John Ford Colcy will
appear in concert tonight at Pershing Audi
torium. The show will incorporate a musical
diversity ranging from soft melodic love
songs to the high energy rock of their re
w;ntiy released LP Dr. Heckle and Mr. Jive.
The LP Is a transitional one for the duo,
who began as a Dallas-based folk group.
The new album points them toward a more
open rock and roll format with a little help
from veteran producerperformer Todd
Rundgren. Rundgren wrote the first single
release from the album, "Love Is the An
swer," and helps with the production.
The shift in style is reproduced on stage
with an all new line up. England Dan has
expanded his role by playing saxaphonc,
and John Ford Coley has added a synthe
sizer to his responsibilities. The new live
piece rock band includes Don Gorman on
drums; Dudda Keith on guitar, harmonica
and vocals; John Leland on bass; Ovid
Stevens on lead guitar; and Michael
Vernacchio on keyboards.
The show will be opened by former
Spirit and Jo Jo Gunne member Jay Fcrgu
son. Ferguson has three solo albums behind
him. The first All Alone in the luidzonc
was a critical success, and his last two have
established him commercially.
His 1977 release, Tlmnder I slat hi and Ins
current LP Real Life Ain't Tlth Way have
both produced hit singles. His current one,
"Shakedown Cruise" is still on the charts!
Hie concert begins at 7:30 p.m. and
tickets are $8.50 in advance and $9.50 at
the door.
