Silver Condor "Live Across America" was recorded at different venues large and small during the summer of 1981. That was the year that Silver Condor attempted to take flight. In a leased Dodge extended cab van they started in Los Angeles and worked their way across America playing a series of 30 one-nighters ending in Dover NJ. Like a shooting star Silver Condor got lost in the corporate halls of Columbia Records. At that time at Columbia Records, one hand didn’t know what the other one was doing. There are are casualties all along the road to success. With a little luck some bust on through to the other side. It’s said that some of the best music doesn’t make it to the radio. Well, this cd proves that to be a fact.

Everyone in the group went on to become successful in their right. Earl Slick went on the have hits of his own and back to being David Bowie’s top choice guitarist. Joe Cerisano went on to become the top session singer American has ever known. John Cory and Jay Davis found success playing with Rod Stewart and Don Henely. Drummer Claude Pepper went back to being one of the top session drummers in LA and started the top R&B club band, Jack Mack and The Heart attack. Together Silver Condor was something really special with a timeless quality that only the best groups possess. I’m sure you’ll agree that even after all these years Silver Condor can take flight and soar with the best.

Joe’s Other Albums

“It was 25 years ago I sat up in my room and tuned in a local radio broadcast of a band passing through Cincinnati called Silver Condor. After hearing Joe Cerisano's soaring pipes, Earl Slicks raw, tight and memorable licks, I ran out to get a copy of their debut album. This amazing new CD brought those same chills back! If you've never heard this band, and you claim to love music...don't miss this hidden gem. And if you DO know Silver Condor and haven't bought this yet, you need to seek professional help!”

- Mark Bennett

“This CD is a true testament to what they were and what they could have been had only they gotten the chance. What you'll hear is a collection of great performances that potentially contained even more hits for the band.”- Dave Haines
