[@henryrameyjr5048]

Got turned onto this band when they first came out in the good old 70s. And now to hear them again. It's just wow.

[@marcusbengtson8570]

Listening to these guys...Awesome! Roy and Mike are at their best!

[@manugrandest1683]

This is lovely & sweet nostalgia tbh

[@gladstonepaiva1643]

Here in 2024

[@Mark-nv4bi]

Saw them in San Diego, wow they were great.

[@RamaPetersen]

I saw them live in Copenhagen 1980 (I think), and it was great. OK not THAT great, but an ok night in Odd Fellow Palæet. (before it burned down)

[@marcusbengtson8570]

I mean... Rat Race ...It's a hit!

[@svogender]

Yeah... It should have been a huge hit...!! Along with Name And Adresses..!! 😎👍

If only "No Ordinary Life" had got airplay/been released as a single....?

[@lennartjonsson3500]

lelle säger city boy är underskattat band i Sverige tyvärr

[@Biffkrull]

hasse håller med. City boy snurrade ganska mycket i min första bil '77-'78 (en Ford Falcon Futura Sprint '64, 'raggarbil' men varken raggare eller raggarmusik)

Listening through it... Awesome album, Mike Slamer did such a great job on this (unreleased) album. What could he, Lol and Roy have done, given the opportunity.

[@svogender]

What do you mean with unreleased album...??? This album was indeed released...!! 😊👍

[@marcusbengtson8570]

@@svogender limited to scandinavia only

[@svogender]

@@marcusbengtson8570 Yes...I know that..! 😊 Do you know why it was a Scandinavia release only..??

[@marcusbengtson8570]

@@svogender no, but I once spoke to Roy over the phone, and he didn't even know it had been released at all!

[@svogender]

@@marcusbengtson8570 Hmmm A true mystery. But thanks for info..!! 😊👍

[@friesiamans1966]

i just stumbled across this, never heard of them before - well, to be honest: this is absolute not my cup of tea, but - - - they are way cool musicians and the vocals are super good!!! cheers from germany edit: i just realize that they really groove - think i´ll give them another try tomorrow, yesssss...

[@susanrussell3001]

Just so you know,they have quite a few albums .if you like this album you will love the other ones.funny thing is if you don't like this album ,you will most likely still like one or more of there other albums happy hunting

[@friesiamans1966]

yeah, thanx a lot - i already downloaded an older album of them - i think i missed them im those days, because i was on punk, new wave, new ska and the like then, completely different feeling - now i´m on a revisiting trip - all my old heroes, and they ARE quite many, haha - so now these guys fit in better than before... cheers... :-) btw. the other day i listened to bo hansson again, he was one of my faves in the 70s - still fascinating...

[@richardisberg1541]

GB use to have/have so many great bands and CB is one of the better.....at least my taste

[@richardlynch8009]

WHY ARE THE MUSICIANS NOT LISTED???

[@svogender]

Mike Slamer... Gui. and Bass Max Thomas... Keys. Lol. Mason... Vox Roy Ward... Drum and vox

[@iqosuser2754]

Well, one track sounds like Gary numan cars and then the next track sounds like police huh!!!

[@garybuzze6309]

Who played bass?

[@stratomm]

Chris Dunn

[@stratomm]

Wrong, not on this album, sorry!

[@robdisner]

Good question. Guessing Mike Slamer did. I’ll find out for ya!

[@mrbill1390]

I'm not sure if you knew this, but Chris Dunn was the original guitar player and he got Mike Slamer to join as a bass player. However, the band soon saw Mike's talents on guitar and Chris then switched to bass. I learned this in the extensive interview with Mike that I found on KZbin.

[@robdisner]

@@mrbill1390 Chris was out of the band by the time this album was recorded. Mike played all guitars and bass on the last two albums.

[@guitarworks2546]

City Boy are a good example of "to many cooks" spoiling the broth...too much talent, great writing, singing playing etc....they should have placed Mike Slamer in the limelight more blazing "guitar god" solos, something as a focal point would have helped their marketing a lot....instead they concentrated on arrangements and great hooks...some more self indulgent "rock" infused soloing (something Mike is totally capable of) would have put a brighter spotlight on the band as a whole.

[@metalbearuk]

Have to say they sound like a band with too many identities struggling to be heard, and so probably finding a target audience was difficult, they didn't fit into a particular genre.

[@svogender]

@@metalbearuk You hit the head of the nail here..!!! City Boy are a band for music lovers with a wide taste in music...!! Me.... I love City Boy..!! 😊👍
