Starwood
Starwood formed
in the early 70's in Aspen, Colorado and managed to release only 2 albums before splitting up with Member Bob Carpenter joining the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band . John Denver signed the band to his fledgling Windsong label for one album and then Starwood toured extensively with Santana, Journey, Eddie Money, Quicksilver Messenger Service and of course Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. The line up was David James Holister (vocals, guitar), Bob Carpenter ( keyboards), Haden Gregg (guitar, vocals), Bob Mason (guitar, vocals), Bernie Mysior ( bass) , Michael Buono (drums) and Bryan Savage ( woodwinds).
The watermark on this album is the tune "Silver and Gold" which has a very strong Crosby Stills Nash and Young vibe about it. The whole album is enjoyable and this 7 piece band were excellent and it is too bad they had such a short life span.
