The Boyzz from Illinoizz/Dirty Dan Buck

MY ALL TIME FAVORITE BAND !!!

WOW.....My early years in life 19-25 were spent around the Boyzz, We would see them sometimes as many as 4 times a week, In this time we became good friends which just added to the magic their show would bring,Dirt who was not only a show stopper But a true musician Gil and Mike matching their guitar prowess was amazing, then Dave on the "Wild Bass" and Anatole and Kent on keys and drums.. What an awesome experience!!One that has carried memories thru the last 30 years !!!!!

Not to be confused with the British punk band Boys, the American clod rock of the Boyzz brought biker imagery, a bit of Godz blasphemy, and the heavy boogie of Black Oak Arkansas to the late-'70s commercial party. The Boyzz were vocalist "Dirty" Dan Buck, keyboardist Anatole Halinkovich (now Tony Hall), guitarists Gil Pini and Mike Tafoya, bassist Dave Angel, plus drummer Kent Cooper. The ruckus of their first and only slab, Too Wild to Tame, caused tremors throughout the heartland and is now something of a lost metal curio. But lack of intellectualism and record sales caught up to the band, with Halinkovich, Tafoya, and Angel clearing out and cleaning up to become the ace pop act B'zz. Around the turn of the century, Tafoya, Buck, and Angel re-formed the Boyzz.Who later have transformed in to bands Like , The B'ZZ, Deluxery and Dirts Raiders, Now My old friend Dirty Dan Buck is still out there rockin the Chicago music scene like no on has since 1976, These were the days of 4 nites a week of the Boyzz and travelling to Wisconsin, Indiana and Beyond for many years and many weekend, Better memories could not have been bought !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
