The A side of this single from Jonathan Elwood is a pretty great BTO-inspired rocker, and - as per the usual - the B side is a slower number, a bit of a slow burner that sounds a bit too much like "Hotel California" for our, well, comfort. Thanks to the archives of Laurie Mills, we have a band bio! [b][i]INTRODUCING "JONATHAN ELWOOD BAND"[/i][/b] [i]JONATHAN ELWOOD BAND is based out of Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
