30-Day Song Challenge: Day 24
A song by a band you still wish were together…
Oh, the music we have lost.
Far Too Jones (1995-2000)
This was another band out of Raleigh, nicknamed the Tobacco Road Quintet. They also had one album produced by Mammoth Records and got a lot of local airplay. The only reason this band broke up, as best as I can tell, is because they had no label support. They just couldn’t break out of the region, much like what happened to Echo 7 in Myrtle Beach (whom, I know, personally…I may have to put up some of their music one day).

Maria McKee is just two years older than I. MAN what a voice from such a little thing. Reminds me of Pat Benatar…sprite of a woman with four octave pipes.

Maria was great. I just knew Lone Justice would be huge at the time…I liked her voice and style she had…

There is a video where she explains what happened to them. Recording industry screw, I think.

They were hyped a little…I remember that…I will look up some interviews.
In the eighties I was a huge fan. She was down to earth and real…unlike say Madonna….nothing against Madonna but Maria was more my taste.

Oh, I’m with you on that. Madonna was kinda in-your-face annoying when she was younger. Now, she is straight up nuts.
