| History on the Eastern Seaboard Band provided by Phil Leviner |
| Hey... I remember the Eastern Seaboard band very well. Jimmy Jackson was the base player (better known as JJ), David Boyette played lead, Donnie Hogan played rhythm, Richard Goodwin was on drums (known as Ringo), Mark Hewett sang and played trumpet and also drums when we needed him to. Vernon Dick sang lead, Mike Mc. played saxaphone. Later we replaced David with Joey Miller from Roxboro. JJ was replaced by Carl Steadman. Jimbo Maples sang with us for awhile. Our sax player quit. Joey left the band and was replaced by Charlie Atwell from Charlotte. After playing keyboards from 1972 until 1976 I (Phil Leviner) decided to give it up. Ricky Singletary replaced me. After keeping the band together for a couple of years, the band dissolved. Now he is with a well know band called the Dixie Ambush. Yeah, our days at the Hanger on Airport Road, and moving on to Myrtle Beach at the Magic Attic were some of the good old days. JJ started a website so anyone that may like to visit can log on to www.easternseaboardband.com. (Check out this website - you'll love the old photos of the group.RR) |
