Cowboy, Boyer & Talton Reunion Special

Cowboy is one of those bands that brings back strong memories of the 70s heyday of Capricorn Records.  From playing on Gregg Allman's classic Laid Back and the follow-up live CD, The Gregg Allman Tour to creating masterpieces like "Please Be With Me," "Time Will Take Us,"and "All My Friends," they defined the laid-back, country soul of that time and place. Cowboy influenced everyone from Eric Clapton and Bonnie Bramblett to the Marshall Tucker Band, and the Southern Rock movement wouldn't have been the same without them.  They not only recorded four albums for Capricorn, they also played on numerous other releases for other artists on the label.

With all of their original Capricorn albums out of print, for many years Cowboy fans had nothing but memories of the original band and their scratchy old vinyl LPs to remind them of this underrated supergroup. However, on December 17th, 2010, that all changed when Cowboy played their first show in years at the Capitol Theater in Macon, Georgia.  It was an extraordinary night full of love and laughter and memories with this wonderful band as they played at a level that few achieve. The set list flowed from one hit into the next and the playing and singing was heartfelt and passionate - as homecomings should be.

This week, Michael Buffalo dedicates his entire Sunday night radio show to the band Cowboy, with special guests Scott Boyer and Tommy Talton. We will be playing selections from their new live CD, talking about the glory days of Capricorn Records, Macon, Georgia, The Allman Brothers and more. Call ins are welcome! (347) 857-2032. The show begins at 7 PM/EST. Join us!
