Crow - Crow Music 1969

From my hometown, Minneapolis blues-rock quintet Crow was formed in 1967 by front man Dave Wagner, guitarist Dick Wiegland, his bassist brother Larry, and keyboardist Kink Middlemist. Originally dubbed 'South 40' they added former Castaways drummer Denny Craswell to the line-up prior to the recording of their debut: "Crow Music" in 1969. The single "Evil Woman Don't You Play your Games with Me" cracked the U.S. top 20, even though the distinct horn arrangement was overdubbed against the band's wishes. (Th song was famously cover by Black Sabbath for their debut single, and remains the only cover ever recorded by Sabbath). "Crow by Crow" followed in 1970, although the single "Cottage Cheese" failed to attract much attention, and in the wake of 1971's "Mosiac" Crow disbanded, although Wagner resurfaced in 1973 with a solo L.P. "David Wagner D/B/A Crow."  Official Webpage
