Detroit’s historic Grande Ballroom is celebrating it’s 40th birthday on Saturday October 7th at the Royal Oak Music Theatre.  An exciting line-up is in store.  Playing will be Big Brother and The Holding Company, Canned Heat, The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown and Third Power. 

Third Power’s legendary bass player, Jem Targal, made a very limited (500 copies?) solo album called Luckey Guy, recorded in 1978 on a four track in his basement.  It’s extremely hard to find and sought after.  Our friend Richard P, who knows Jem, was telling us about it and about a week later we were shocked when we found an original signed copy.

Listen to a sample track above, it’s pretty crazy.
