10 kr på Roa Gjenbruksstasjon er jo helt på sin plass. 3 James Brown coverlåter, Booker T og Lee Dorsey. Kun 1 låt av bandet selv.
Var nede hos Reggae-Jan i går, og spilte over herligheten på EDB, hvor det viste seg at han var i besittelse av en EP, Shotgun, hvis spor ikke er å finne på LPen.
Noen andre som er i besittelse av noe Public Enemies, og vil dele litt cover art ?
For de som ikke har hørt bandet før : Public Enemies Medley HERE
Et fantastisk morsomt intervju HER
Public Enemies was a leading Norwegian rhythm and blues band from Oslo, known for its performances at Club 7 and later work with Karin Krog. They released a notable version of Sunny and Watermelon Man with Karin Krog. The group toured Northern Europe, sharing stages with among others Traffic’s Stevie Winwood.
The members of Public Enemies were Hans Petter Holm (vocals, guitar, bass), Bjørn Johansen (guitar, vocals), Thomas Berg Monsen (harmonica, vocals), Arild Boman (organ), Hans Marius Stormoen (bass) and Jan Lie (drums, vocals).Public Enemies was voted the most popular band in Norway in 1966, with a good margin down to The Pussycats. They featured in the Norwegian film Hurra for Andersens, performing their hit single Shotgun. Later that year Public Enemies’ Shotgun reached #7 on Radio Luxembourg Top 20, making Public Enemies the first Norwegian band with success on international hit lists.
In 1967 Christian Reim (organ) joined Public Enemies. The band was dissolved the same year when Hans Marius Stormoen and Reim went on to form Dream with Terje Rypdal. Bjørn Johansen and Jan Lie later formed the band The Prophets.
