Black Oak Arkansas Discography | | |
Page History
This page is – and will always be – under construction... HAHA! I am an ordinary Finnish guy, who by
accident went mad on
BOA in the mid '70s, after hearing them playing on the radio only once. There are some good things in
life, and BOA is
definitely one of them.
The story so far
03.02.01 Added Rickie Lee's note about the Rebound CD.
31.01.01 Added a couple of sleeve notes.
28.01.01 Back to basics with the layout. The Java script did not work for every visitor so it
was time to simplify it.
10.01.01 Added a cover pic of the new remastered Rebound CD (thanks Les!). Added liner notes
of Early Times album.
03.12.00 Updated links to Rob's new BOA page address.
15.10.00 Added cover pics of two late compilations.
12.09.00 Unified some parts of the layout with Rob's BOA page.
04.09.00 Saddled my horse again. Got some rare singles pics from Paolo Chiorino to add. Also
renewed the page layout. I
hope you like it. If not, just do it better yourself. There is always room for another BOA page. Raunch
'n' Roll!
28.08.99 Updated links at last. Okay, it is time to admit that I have turned old, fat and tired.
In other words: I feel myself a
middle-aged man. Have mercy on me! Therefore, I also feel that the time has come to return this discography
back home. As
you have already noticed, Ms. Linda Emrich is doing an excellent job with the Official Black Oak Arkansas
Web Site, offering
us Oakheads the best possible place to meet in cyberspace. From now on she will renew and maintain also
the discography.
And what about me? Well, I'll be hanging around the bbs and chat – as from the very beginning – together
with a certain
veteran friend of mine (clue: see my first note). See y'all there!
27.07.98 Added a few compilations with BOA tracks to the Various Artists section.
29.03.98 Added some promo singles and King Biscuit Flower Hour CD onto discography's mainpage.
23.01.98 Added some serial numbers to singles, and readjusted the discography list a bit.
21.01.98 Uploaded the rest of Balls Of Fire -lyrics. Also some additions onto "people talk".
10.01.98 Started to work up the discography: modified the frontpage a bit, wrote the "about"-page
and uploaded the new Balls
of Fire -page as an example of new ideas.
How it all began
I found Rob MacIsaac's BOA-page
on the net in the summer of '96 when it was just started and heavily under construction.
So I sent him an e-mail 29.8.96, in which I asked if I could help him somehow. Rob answered YES and
I started to scan in and
edit the BOA-album covers, a couple of other pictures and the power acorn logo. Gradually I started
to feel we were on a
mission or something – like Jake and Elwood, haha – with Rob's webpage project. And then, suddenly,
after a long period of
hard work, the snowball started to roll... to be continued some day (or maybe not). Cheers, Rob!
