Annotation
Hard rock group, formed in 1969 in Fort Worth, Texas, USA, they disbanded in 1975. The song "Thank You Daniel Ellsberg" (Capitol Records # 3451), released on the 1972 album Passage (Capitol Records # SW-11109), of course praised Ellsberg as suggested in the title, whom they refer to casually as "Danny boy", for "all the notes that came from you" and for "scheming out all the schemers". The lyrics reference a "Louis Packwood" - but unable to find any information on this.
