The Swinging Richards: Outta My Head, 2009.12.26

The Swinging Richards performing a shortened version of their classic local Atlanta 80s hit! Chris Edmonds on keys and vocals, Bruce Smith on lead guitar (I've always loved the solo in this one!)

I cherish an old nearly-worn cassette tape copy of the full-length version of this song... the vinyl belonged to my ex. It's nearly impossible to find these days... but I'm hoping one day Wax N Facts will come through!

Taken at Smith's Olde Bar on December 26, 2009.

I have the vinyl of "Call of the Wild". I had a blast following the Swinging Richards around the clubs in the early-mid 80s. I'm just wishing I was on the e-mail list for the reunion parties! Oh well, I'm married with children, 30 years older, and I can't stay out that late anymore... Thanks for the video! Do they still get together regularly?!

Oh, how I wish I had that on vinyl! It's nearly impossible to find... I look every time I go to Wax-N-Facts. I don't know if they have an email address, but they seem to play around Christmastime every year...

anyone know how Chris is doing these days? Or if there are any Numbers (band Chris Edmunds was in before Swinging Richards) videos out there? Just wondering...I'm also 30 yrs older...sheesh...but I was a baby when I was hanging out w these guys...15-20 yrs old! now 45...would love to say hey to Chris sometime..
