[net.music] Varied Rock, Dixie Dregs

rhodes@ll-vlsi.ARPA (03/06/85)

	On the subject of varied rock, what do people know about the
band "Dixie Dregs".  I picked up an album of theirs several year ago
title "What If" which immediately became a favorite.  The album consists
of four to five instrumental pieces which range in style with violins
and electric guitar as the featured instruments.  I recommend it highly.

	On the basis of this album I bought a second on which the band had
changed its name to simply "The Dregs".  This album, "Unsung Heros", had
a much narrower range of style, the music was louder and relied more
heavily on the electric guitar.  I don't like this one as much but the
music is still worth a listen.

	I have always been curious about the direction and history of this
band.  Does anybody know anything more about them?
