Message: [QUOTE="Lynx23, post: 4297694, member: 309"] "A Nice Day For Something" - Norm Zeller and First Friday (1970 Notre Dame rock band) This one will shock some of you Notre Dame haters. First Friday was a rock band of ND students who would perform on the steps of their dorm before every football home game. Norm Zeller, their lead guitarist, was an Economics major out of the Chicago area, if I recall correctly. While most students were following the ND Marching Band parading around campus, I was glued to Mr. Zeller's fingers. This was 1970, and to this day I would consider him a match to many of the famous guitarists at that time, Mike Bloomfield and Eric Clapton included, and one of the main reasons I'm still playing guitar in several bands some 50 years later. For you guitar enthusiasts, this track was recorded live in the off-campus studio of another ND student, running a late 50's sunburst Les Paul through a blackface Fender Twin Reverb. Perfect tone IMHO. Sadly, that same guitar would be heisted from an airport carousel, a tremendous loss as the instrument would be worth several hundred thousand dollars today.
