That was followed by a 1967 single released under the name of Steve Walker & The Bold, Dynovoice 232[/blue] Train Kept A Rollin' / Found What I Was Looking For.
They were the house band at the Playboy Club in NYC in 1968 where they played 7 nights a week (and jam sessions on Sunday afternoon to boot!) for a full year. It is during this time that guitarist Bob La Palm is said to have met and taught Joe Walsh (then of The James Gang) his techniques for using the echoplex effect on guitar (as is so elegantly exemplified on track "Free Fugue", from the ABC album). It's also around this time that as the band was moving with the times to a more psychedelic style, they dropped the "the" from their "the Bold" billing. It is interesting to also note, perhaps uncoincidentally, that producer Bill Szymczyk (who later went on to produce Joe Walsh's other band, The Eagles) took an interest in Bold during this time period and went on to produce their only full length LP, self-titled "Bold", on ABC records, (ABCS-705)
After Bold broke up, Bob La Palm then joined Connecticut's premier band, The Wildweeds (featuring Al Anderson of NRBQ fame) for a short time towards the end of that band's career, and he is known to have played on at least one recording session with them, as well as numerous gigs.
Then Bob La Palm and Timothy Griffin, went on to found a band called Clean Living with Norman Schell.
Tim Griffin also played drums in James Taylor's road band very briefly. Steve Walker moved to Lake Tahoe where he played bass in a band called Amazing Grace after which he formed the Steve Walker Band and has played on the Tahoe Queen for last 26 years or so.

Forget the past pain I have felt
Sounds of hope I wish to hear
From minds I know are clear
My minds clear
Free from hurt
My minds clear
I value it's worth

And it just blows my mind that Ridge is all for Hope to be his daughter in law and her dad all at the same time.

That is not true. RIDGE has always known that DEACON is HOPE’S father.
It was BRIDGET that BROOKE tried to pass off as RIDGE’S.

Thomas is obsessed with Hope and it’s too bad that she’s heading in this direction with him.
@lindajackson2382
Hope flashed a fake smile at the end of this scene! Did you all catch that? WHY can't this woman just say" I'm in LOVE with you Thomas"???? She's said everything else BUT THAT. I tell you Thomas should just DROP HER now! Their relationship has gone on long enough now for her to say that! Hope is SELFISH- it's all about HER and HER feelings. Drop her Thomas!
@CR61110
Thank you! If anything, THOMAS deserves better than her. Hope’s the actual worst
@lucylennon533
I agree! Drop her, Thomas or your 2nd marriage to Hope will end in annulment like the 1st one.
