The sessions in which Browne worked with the Blue
Oyster Cult guys predates BOC's St. Cecelia sessions
from 1970 when they were the Stalk-Forrest Group
(i.e., the Rhino Handmade recordings). The ones I'm
talking about were recorded during 1969, back when
they were still Soft White Underbelly (or they may
even have still been calling themselves Oaxaca at the
time). This was during the period of their first
Elektra sessions, back when Les Braunstein was their
lead singer (Eric Bloom was their roadie and soundman
at that point).
As far as I know, Jac Holtzman sat on these recordings
-- both the Braunstein-fronted band tracks and the
tracks on which they backed Jackson Browne -- and they
never saw the light of day. For all I know, the Browne
tracks might never have even been finished.
Soft White Underbelly remains one of my all-time
favorite band names.
