Q. (Hideki W.)

Who was Kid Shaleen (He was a guitar player on the tune titled "People Do" ...Last tune of A side of "Hungry Chuck" Album) ?

 

A. (Jim C.)

The name "Kid Shaleen" was a joke name we used.
It is only Amos Garrett. Amos Garrett can do a great imitation of Lee Marvin.
Back in the "Great Speckled Bird" days, Amos used to dress in an outfit that wasmuch like Kid Shaleen, the character that Lee Marvin portrayed in the film, "Cat Ballou."

 

Q. (Hideki W.)

In recording sessions of "Hungry Chuck"'s unreleased 2nd album.... David Wilcox replaced Amos Garrett as guitar player.
Was it the true ?
And....Was Peter Ecklund in there ?

 

A. (Jim C.)

Everyone who was on the first album appeared on the 2nd. Amos and Peter were there too. David Wilcox was added because, at that time, Amos was doing some performing with Paul Butterfield's "Better Days" and was not always available to us.
