Jim Boyd: Them Old Guitars
RELEASE DATE: June 28, 2005

Them Old Guitars is available at Thunderwolf's store. This ten song, rock-oriented release isn't what Boyd's current listener base would expect from him, but represents a sort of homecoming.

The recording holds tributes to friends such as Jerry Stensgar (Them Old Guitars), his long-time friend and band mate who passed away a couple of years ago, and Fran Swan (Legend Of Franco), another life long friend of Boyd's.

The CD includes many up-tempo songs that are definitely main stream rock and roll, but still aren't commercial by any means. Boyd's brand of rock gravitates more towards the seventies and eighties styles. "That's my kind of rock," Boyd reminds us.

Boyd used many friends on this CD. He played all guitar parts, many bass guitar parts, piano, percussion, and vocals. You'll find familiar names from Kyo-T, like Alfonso Kolb on drums and background vocals, Marty Meisner sitting in on some bass guitar, and Brad Greene on keys for two songs. There were also other musicians like Paul Raymond on percussion and Keleren Millham on background vocals.

The release was recorded and mastered at Black Coffee Recording in Spokane by Robert Hartwig. If you're a fan of rock and roll, you'll love this recording.
