PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED: Richard & The Rabbits: "Sam's Decision," featuring Benjamin Orr on vocals

Описание: This song is from a cassette of various demos by Ric Ocasek and Benjamin Orr, circa 1974. I believe Ric sings the first verse, then Benjamin takes over.

I don't know where this song was recorded, but I had a chance to ask Greg Hawkes about it and he believes it was performed by Richard & The Rabbits. Fuzzbee Morse, another member of that band, has confirmed that it was them, and that it was recorded in 1974.

"Sam's Decision" is the second of two songs on this cassette known to be recorded by Richard & The Rabbits. The other is "Harlequin," which I've also uploaded to my channel.

Song credits:

Ric Ocasek: vocals, guitar
Benjamin Orr: vocals, bass
Greg Hawkes: flute, recorder, clarinet & vocals
Fuzzbee Morse: guitar, piano, vibes & vocals
Ron Riddle: drums & vocals
