Ram Jam - 1978 - Portrait of the Artist As a Young Ram
Ram Jam was an American 1970s rock band, best known for their 1977 hit single, "Black Betty". The band members were Bill Bartlett (guitar), Pete Charles (drums), Myke Scavone (lead singer), and Howie Arthur Blauvelt (bass). Also, Jimmy Santoro, who toured with the band in support of their debut album, joined on guitar for the follow-up album. Bartlett was formerly lead guitarist for bubblegum group The Lemon Pipers, while Blauvelt played with Billy Joel in two bands, The Hassles and El Primo. Portrait of the Artist as a Young Ram is the second and final album by Ram Jam in 1978. Re-released in 2006 on Rock Candy Records. The title is a play on James Joyce's semi-autobiographical novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. 01 - Gone Wild 02 - Pretty Poison 03 - The Kid Next Door 04 - Turnpike 05 - Wanna Find Love 06 - Just Like Me 07 - Hurricane Ride 08 - Saturday Night 09 - Runway Runaway 10 - Please, Please, Please (Please Me) LINK
