Posted from an old LP. From the 1972 album " Of A Simple Man". "Roland Kent LaVoie, aka Lobo, is semi-retired and currently living in Florida with his wife Susie. "People don't know me much or the way I look and that's OK. To this day, most probably think I'm some group." Over a four year period in the 1970's, Lobo made the singles chart 14 times. Top 40 hits seemed never ending. His folk-countryLobo circa 1971 flavored "I'd Love You To Want Me", "Don't Expect Me To Be Your Friend" and "Me And You And A Dog Named Boo" won positions in the nation's Top listings on "Adult Contemporary" radio stations. Lobo was born in Tallahassee, Florida on July 31, 1943. He is one of seven children raised in Winter Haven, Florida which is in the central part of the state. "I never met my father." "I knew that my mother had sung in a big band. I never questioned her about Dad. It seemed something not to talk about." Years later he learned that his dad had been a big band guitar player. "I never had any lessons, and nobody in my family was interested in music but my older brother Roger, who has had some country tunes recorded." "Some kid down the street showed me what he knew on a worn Doboro. I had a paper route, and when I had learned enough chords to sing with, I bought a little amp and an electric guitar, a Stratocaster, it was. It was such a fancy guitar that I was asked into this band." (The Back Bay - The Fans of Lobo Web Page)

All of the arrangements on this album were made by LAGQ members. Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite was arranged by Andrew York, who explains in the booklet notes that he first arranged part of the suite for two guitars, which worked musically but was hard to play. So, as he explains: “The ideal solution was to redo the work for guitar quartet, allowing a more complete translation of the complexities of the orchestral score, which could be balanced among four guitars. Two dances remain as duets — the “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy,” played here by Bill Kanengiser and Scott Tennant; and “Arabian Dance,” in which John Dearman and I are the players.”
