Freewheelin'


Cleveland, 1974-6

Freewheelin' was a mid 70s Cleveland band that included veteran musicians and had a run of a year or so where they were a top local band. The members were Danny Cox on guitar (formerly of the Trohls/Quantrill Raiders, Baskerville Hounds, and Happy Daze), Doug Jones on keyboards (from Raintree and Happy Daze), Norm Tischler on sax and flute (from Tiny Alice and Bazoom), Dennis Sprester on guitar (from Featherwood), Tom Szell (from the John Garrett Group) on bass, and Jerry Shumaker (from Alice Blue and Scarecrow) on drums.

The band played a mix of rockin' blues and R&B along with some classic rock.
