Talk:Zephyr (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I would like to update the information on this page.
I was a fan since their inception in Boulder, Co in 1968, saw them play live many times, actually knew Candy and David Givens personally, my band toured with them (Candy and David) in Colorado during the seventies, and David Givens also did some pre-production work with my band.
There are in my opinion some minor, though I am sure well-intentioned inaccuracies in the existing article that I would like to correct, e.g. (band formed in Boulder, not Denver) (Zephyr did not disband after Sunset Ride, and there were many incarnations of Zephyr after that version broke up) etc.
as well as add some more information.
Reason I am using this forum to request permission to do that is I do not feel it is right to over-write / correct what is there without some type of permission from the Wiki staff.
I have added a photo (it is an old Zephyr promo photo they used often) of the original lineup, taken by Rod Dyer. I am also in the process of contacting Rod Dyer International http://www.roddyerinternational.com/ to confirm copyright level and usage permission.
I have also added 2 links from the Tommy Bolin archives, both of which I can vouch for with respect to their accuracy (one is written by David Givens, founder of the band).
Please let me know via message here or by email dave_queen@hotmail.com
if I am allowed to edit / add to the Zephyr article.
Thanks daveq
Zephyr is a great band for what they were. The Album "Sunset Ride" is well done and Tommy Bolin is a strong nucleus. Very rare today in 2007, would you agree people?
