Newborn is the eighth album by James Gang, released in 1975. Guitarrist Tommy Bolin and singer Roy Kenner left the band, and were replaced by guitarist Richard Shack and vocalist Bubba Keith, for this album only. This is considered by some fans as the poorest album by the James Gang in its history.
