Nighthawks - 1977 - Side Pocket Shot
In 1977, the band was back in the studio working on their next album,
“Side Pocket Shot,” an album that included more originals that helped
to establish the band’s credibility. They took a decidedly more
commercial approach with this one. There was a four piece horn
section—Billy Price’s Rhythm Kings from Pittsburgh. There were also two
female backup singers and organ, pedal steel guitar and much
overdubbing. There were more original songs and more offbeat covers. It
was another solid effort that continued to build their standing in the
blues community. The album was recorded at Track Recorders in Silver
Spring. The studio had blocked out a good bit of time for work on the
album, but the band worked efficiently and had time to spare. This gave
them some extra studio time and the opportunity to do whatever they
liked.
