Annie you have a beautiful voice. Love you on Magnet and Steele and other Walter Egan hits.

I was curious about the lady singing backup in Walter Egans Magnet and steel. I did some searching and found it was Annie Mcloone. I went on Youtube to see if there was any other music she was involved in. I found Sageworth and have been watching the video and enjoying the music. I am very impressed with the group but Annies voice has just got me blown away. I don't remember the band ( I am 44 ) but I remember Walters song and I remember even then the womans beautiful voice ! Annie you rock !

I was thrilled to see this video. I saw many of your concerts in DC as a teenager and loved the band. I wish there were more videos!!

Do you know what Jack Burkhardt is doing now?

Thanks for posting it.

@psfanyla

Sorry for the late reply. No I'm sorry I don't know where Jack is, except runored to be in London. However I just spoke with John Borger (guitarist with beard) and he is in Massachusetts.

Thanks for the kind words. Walt and I put together a CD of original Sageworth songs from the day. Working on how to make it available to anyone interested. Stay tuned!

I met John Borger in the late 1960’s, at the residence of who I thought to be, back then, a mutual friend to John & I, Matt Andrea. I was performing folk songs, at age 16, in my VA high school, & anxious to learn more. I did. John taught me a couple of his original tunes. I would name them here, but I won’t. I know he performed at the Childe Herald in D.C., back then. I always thought he was an excellent songwriter, even then.

like frapi 125 , i saw the magnet and steel video from walter egan and wondered who you were . would you claim sandy denny as an influence on your singing style ? really remarkable voice !

Hello,

My two friends and I did lights and between set movies way back when at emergency. I remember doing them for your band as well as many others. Back then we had a 35mm movie projector, an overhead projector and two banks of homemade spots. We made friends with Chicken who got us in to do our thing each weekend.

Does anyone know where Bing is? Last I heard he had a brain tumor. But that was a few years ago. I thought he might show up at the toy show. Does anyone know? I kinda suspect he's still making amazing music on his synthesizers............
