Forgotten Bomp LP (Never Reissued)

JIMMY LEWIS AND THE CHECKERS - YEAH, RIGHT (1980)

 

Jimmy Lewis & The Checkers released Yeah, Right on Bomp Records in 1980. One song ("Think") from the LP was included on the "Experiments In Destiny" compilation. Little is known about the band, but it seems they were coming from Tulsa. Jimmy Lewis (guitar, vocals) and Jerry Naifeh (drums, vocals) were the core of the band, the same way Twilley & Seymour were the Dwight Twilley Band. So , this is no surprise to know Jerry Naifeh was the original drummer with the Dwight Twilley Band. Even more about the Twilley link, side two was produced by Noah Shark & Max and some of the musicians playing were Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench.
