The pictures below show larger views of one of the (2) 1976 The Outlaws Music Band Boston Massachusetts Black & White Professional Photograph Negatives in this lot, and a closer view of it. We were having scanner issues at the time and the second negative was not scanned, but it is the exact same pose as the 1st one. PLEASE NOTE: The third image is NOT included here. IT IS ONLY SHOWN FOR REFERENCE. It had been taken of the band drinking and playing cards around the same time as the (2) negatives that we are offering.

These negatives, along with many others, were acquired professional Photographer negatives from a Boston, Massachusetts agency. They were all taken in 1976. We do not know if these images have ever been published anywhere or not. This agency had much business with many of the airlines at the Logan Airport in Boston and with the MTA, Mass Transit Authority. We believe that the Photographer was there for an airline photo shoot, and the Outlaws band just happened to be leaving on a flight on a British Airways airplane. The (2) photos had been taken just before they boarded the plane.

The band members in the images include: Billy Jones, Henry Paul, Frank O’Keefe, Harvey Dalton Arnold, and Monte Yoho. They were most likely touring and promoting their first record album “OUTLAWS” (1975) and perhaps their second “LADY IN WAITING” (1976).

Outlaws is an American southern rock/country rock band best known for their 1975 hit “There Goes Another Love Song” and extended guitar jam “Green Grass and High Tides” from their 1975 debut album, plus their 1980 cover of the Stan Jones classic “(Ghost) Riders in the Sky”.

Early history
The Outlaws were formed in Tampa, Florida in 1967 by guitarists / vocalists Frank Guidry. Hughie Thomasson and Hobie O’Brien, drummer David Dix and bassist Phil Holmberg joined the on going band to replace members. By early 1968, O’Brien and Holmberg both left the band to get married and Herb Pino and Frank O’Keefe came in on vocals and bass respectively. Later that year, Tommy Angarano joined the Outlaws to replace Pino, bringing Hammond organ sounds and his style of vocals to the band. Shortly after, he quit and Herb was brought back in. In the spring of 1968 the group’s first manager, Paul Deutekom, brought them to Epic Studios in New York City to record an album, which was never released after the band and the producer of the album had a falling out. The group headed back to Tampa then got another deal to go to Criteria Studios in Miami. There they recorded another album with producer Phil Gernhard. But this album was likewise never released and Gernhard vanished soon after. As part of the Gernhard record deal, Ronny Elliott working with Phil Gernhard was brought in around this time forcing Guidry out of the band. Ronny played bass while O’Keefe briefly switched to guitar. But O’Keefe went back to bass after Elliott left several weeks later when the band didn’t sound the same and Herb Pino began playing guitars and doing vocals at this time. Drummer Monte Yoho also joined that same year to sub for Dix.

In early 1970, the Outlaws were joined by two members of the Dave Graham Group that was also managed by Paul Deutekom (Ped-Dyn. Productions.) The Dave Graham Group’s Union leader was Monte Yoho, but he was not invited to be part of this line up. The early 1970 Outlaws line up was Hughie Thomasson, Frank O’Keefe, Dave Dix, Billy Jones and Dave Graham. Graham was influential in moving the group toward country-rock, especially the music of Poco. They recorded a cover of the Doors’ “Five to One” as an audition to a recording deal that never materialized. This lineup ended in the spring of 1970 and the group eventually parted ways with Deutekom. Yoho and Herb Pino returned, but by 1971 the offers for gigs had slowed down and the group went into limbo for a year or so, not sure if they would continue.

In 1971 Henry Paul, a singer and guitarist who was born in New York City but grew up in the Tampa area, returned from a stay in Greenwich Village, N.Y.C. to form Sienna, which was more of a country rock outfit. He was joined by Monte Yoho and Frank O'Keefe. In 1972 Hughie Thomasson returned from a brief spell in New York where he’d been backing up folksinger Milton Carroll, joined up with Paul, Yoho and O’Keefe and Sienna became the reborn Outlaws.

Billy Jones, who would sometimes show up to jam with the group on organ in 1971 and 1972, returned from a stint in Boulder, Colorado in 1973 and switched to guitar, giving birth to the band’s first infamous guitar trio later dubbed “the Florida Guitar Army”. O’Keefe left the group temporarily in 1973 - 1974. Buzzy Meekins and another bassist named Rick Birkbeck stood in until he was able to return. In 1974 Charlie Brusco signed on as manager for the Outlaws. Alan Walden (brother of Capricorn Records founder Phil Walden) was told of the group by Lynyrd Skynyrd frontman Ronnie Van Zant and he joined forces with Brusco as co-manager.

The band was the first act signed to Arista Records under Clive Davis. Davis was in the audience at a show in 1974 where the band was opening for Lynyrd Skynyrd in Columbus, Georgia. On the way to the stage for Lynyrd Skynyrd’s set, lead vocalist Ronnie Van Zant said to Clive Davis who was with Charlie Brusco “If you don’t sign the Outlaws, you’re the dumbest music person I’ve ever met, and I know you’re not.”

The Outlaws’ earliest well known songs were “There Goes Another Love Song” and “Green Grass and High Tides”, both from their 1975 debut album The Outlaws. Their 1980 cover of “(Ghost) Riders in the Sky” from the album Ghost Riders was their biggest single chart success, reaching No. 31 on the Billboard “Pop Singles” chart.

I would just like to set the record straight about the very early history of The Outlaws Band from Tampa, Florida. I was the lead singer in the band which evolved into the Outlaws. This band of youngsters was called The Senders (not The Rogues). Frankly I never knew a band in that area called the Rogues at that time. The Senders was formed in late 1965 or early 1966 as I recall. Most of us were still in high school. The Senders manager was a businessman named Mr. Spivey. His son Ken played bass and vocal. The drummer was Larry Diaz, lead guitar was Paul Argentier, rhythm guitar and vocal was Frank Guidry and myself Carl Parnell was lead singer. We played school dances, teen clubs and anywhere Mr. Spivey could get us a gig. We became the house band at a popular teen club called “The In Crowd” near Tampa University and started to get a little notoriety in the Tampa area. We were contacted by Mr. Paul Deutekom who had a professional booking agency out of St. Petersburg I believe. This would have been about mid 1966. It was about that time things began to change within the band. A suggestion was made that we should come up with a new name. Mr. Spivey wanted to devote more time to his business and Mr. Deutekom felt we needed to make some internal changes. Things began to happen quickly then. The band signed on with the Deutekom Agency and a new base player came in. His name was Danny Feriese. We wanted a name with a kind of Western badguy twist so we kicked around lots of names like James Boys, Younger Boys, Outlaws, Sundowners etc. We finally settled on The Outlaws Band. Everybody agreed so we went with it. This group was in place and playing as The Outlaws Band in Tampa by mid 1966. Ultimately, by mid 1967 our lead guitar player Paul (who was an excellent guitarist) moved back to New York. I left the band to head off to college and Frank reformed the group with those mentioned in the original article. Frank Guidry was the only member I recall as an early member of the famous Outlaws Band from Tampa. The others came after my time. This is the true, first person history.

Career
While the Outlaws are generally considered to be a part of the Southern Rock genre, there are distinct differences in their approach and their influences. Their primary similarity to other Southern Rock bands is the dual lead guitar interplay, a defining characteristic of many Southern rock bands. However, the Outlaws’ mix of country and rock elements displays the vocal harmony influences of groups like Buffalo Springfield, the Byrds, Eagles, New Riders of the Purple Sage, and Poco. Their use of three and four part harmonies set them apart from their contemporaries who usually relied on a single lead vocalist. Hughie Thomasson’s signature guitar playing style and voice were defining characteristics of the band’s sound. Thomasson’s guitar sound was underpinned by the use of the Fender Stratocaster (and sometimes a Telecaster) played in a quasi-country style mixed with fluid, quick blues runs. Hughie was nicknamed “The Flame” for his flaming fast guitar work. He is a member of the Fender Hall of Fame.

The other lead guitarist, Billy Jones, played mainly a Gibson Les Paul and switched between a clean and distorted sound. A good example of this can be heard on “Green Grass and High Tides” on the right stereo channel. Hughie Thomasson’s distinctive Stratocaster sound can be heard on the left channel. Thomasson opens the first solo at the intro and plays the first half of the two succeeding longer solos all on the right channel. There are many video examples of his Green Grass solos on the internet. The records released by the band between 1975 and 1980 are considered the best representation of the band’s style. The band was seen on successful concert tours billed with other non Southern rock acts of the time including opening for the Who on the “Who Boots In” tour in 1976. This contrast of styles was more common at that time than the packaged “genre” tours seen so often these days. The willingness of promoters to mix styles led to the Outlaws gaining a large following in the United States.

The Outlaws’ style is highly characterized in their first three albums, The Outlaws (1975), Lady in Waiting (1976), and Hurry Sundown (1977). These are considered the best work of the band with all of the “classic era” band members, except for O’Keefe, who was replaced by the left handed bass player Harvey Dalton Arnold on “Hurry Sundown”. Henry Paul left after their third album in 1977, and eventually formed the Henry Paul Band, which would release four albums from 1979 - 1982. With the band beginning to falter in the early 1980s, Billy Jones left the band in 1981. Henry Paul returned in 1983.

The albums released after 1980 are largely viewed by critics as a gradual move away from the original sound that gained them success in the 1970s. The reworking of the Western styled “Ghost Riders” in 1980 was the band’s last taste of big league success, although the band released two more records, Los Hombres Malo in 1982 and Soldiers of Fortune in 1986. As the 1980s came to a close, Thomasson became the final original member of the act. Albums such as Diablo Canyon, released in 1994, were released on smaller independent record labels. The band by now was mostly confined to smaller club dates. This situation led to Thomasson accepting a guitar position in the legendary and more popular Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1996. This essentially sidelined the Outlaws for a decade, as Thomasson’s voice and guitar style were just too integral a part of the Outlaws’ sound for the other members to successfully work without it. In 2000, the Diablo Canyon lineup released the album So Low, to mixed response from fans. Many cited it as being more of a solo output from Thomasson. After this release, the band again vanished from the musical environment. Henry Paul went on to form the country band BlackHawk, which had some chart success in the 1990s.

In April 2005, classic members Hughie Thomasson, Henry Paul, Monte Yoho, and David Dix reunited as the Outlaws and the rest of the lineup was filled out with former guitarist Chris Anderson, bassist Randy Threet, and Dave Robbins on keyboards. The latter three had been with Paul’s country group BlackHawk. The members from the band’s heyday, guitarist Billy Jones and bassist Frank O’Keefe, had died in 1995, O’Keefe of a drug overdose and Jones suicide shortly after. Paul and Robbins left to resume their careers in BlackHawk in early 2006, but the remaining band soldiered on. They were part of the Charlie Daniels Volunteer Jam tour in the summer of 2007. Band leader Hughie Thomasson died on September 9, 2007, of a heart attack in Brooksville, Florida. No release date has been announced for the new studio album, Once an Outlaw, which was finished before Thomasson’s death. A cover version of their trademark epic 10 minute track “Green Grass and High Tides” is featured as the finale in the set list for guitar and bass in the video game Rock Band and features two complicated solos.

In December 2007, 2008 Outlaws tour dates were released. In January 2008, the Outlaws lineup would be revealed to include Henry Paul (guitars/vocals), Monte Yoho (drums), Chris Anderson (guitars/vocals), and Randy Threet (bass), along with newer additions Billy Crain (guitars), Jon Coleman (keyboards), and Brett Cartwright (bass). Cartwright left the band shortly thereafter. This would be the first lineup in Outlaws’ history without Hughie Thomasson on guitar and vocals, as from the band’s formation to his death, he was the only constant member, garnering him the nicknames “Mr. Outlaw” and “The Lone Outlaw”. According to the band’s web site, the Outlaws announced their intention to continue to tour throughout the summer and fall of 2009 with this lineup and planned to participate in the Simple Man Cruise with Lynyrd Skynyrd in January 2010. It was also stated on the website that the band would change its name to “Henry Paul Band” due to Thomasson’s death, but to continue touring with the same set lists.

In May 2010 the Outlaws were featured, along with the Marshall Tucker Band, Molly Hatchet, Blackberry Smoke, and the Chris Hicks Band, on stage at Long Island Southern Jam 2010 in Babylon, N.Y. at Overlook Beach. The all day concert featured a unique jam fest for all the bands. For the 2010 tour Dave Robbins returned on keyboards and Henry Paul was involved in a lawsuit brought about by Hughie Thomasson’s widow, Mary, which alleged trademark violations. In April 2011 the case was ruled upon in favor of Henry Paul, Monte Yoho and the co-defendants.

On July 30, 2012, it was announced on the band’s website that “their first new album in 12 years” will be released on September 25, 2012, titled “It’s About Pride”. It was also accompanied by a separately released DVD documentary about the making of the new album, called “Hidin’ Out In Tennessee”. Led by Henry Paul, the album was critically acclaimed. A few years before the album, Paul recruited an old friend from the Henry Paul Band, lead guitarist Billy Crain to join the band. Paul and Crain collaborated on writing many of the songs for It’s About Pride. The final track was a cover of the Henry Paul Band song “So Long” from its 1979 debut album, “Grey Ghost”. In 2013, Billy Crain left the band and Steve Grisham, who performed on the 1986 album Soldiers of Fortune, rejoined as guitarist. In 2016, the Outlaws released a 2 CD concert set titled “Legacy Live”. In 2018, Dale Oliver (guitar), former touring guitarist with country band BlackHawk, replaced Chris Anderson.
