BLACK OAK ARKANSAS - Storm of Passion (1976) w.lyrics

The group, originally called "The Knowbody Else", was formed in 1965 in Black Oak, Arkansas, by Ronnie "Chicky Hawk" Smith (vocals), Rickie Reynolds (guitar), Stanley Knight (guitar), Harvey Jett (guitar), Pat Daugherty (bass), and Wayne Evans (drums). Their first PA system was stolen from a local high school. Members of the group were subsequently charged in absentia with grand larceny and sentenced to 26 years at the Tucker Prison Farm (this sentence was later suspended). This led to their retreat to the hills of rural northcentral Arkansas where they lived off the land and refined their musical style.[citation needed] They also lived in Long Beach, Mississippi and played at the local Lobe theater/dance hall. Some of their influences during this time were the Beatles and the Byrds. At some point the band and Ronnie "Chicky Hawk" Smith agreed that a mutual friend named James "Jim Dandy" Mangrum would make a better front man, Ronnie Smith agreed that he would make a better stage production manager. The Knowbody Else moved to Memphis, Tennessee in 1969 and signed a record deal with Stax Records. Their self-titled debut album was largely ignored by the public. During this time the band became interested in psychedelia and Eastern spiritualism which, combined with their Southern Baptist upbringing, contributed to their sound. After several trips to Los Angeles, California, in 1970, the band was signed by Atco Records (whose parent label Atlantic Records once had a partnership with Stax) and rechristened "Black Oak Arkansas". Their self-titled debut album Black Oak Arkansas was released in 1971 while the band toured extensively, gaining a reputation as a live act. The twin album releases that followed in 1972, Keep the Faith and If an Angel Came to See You, Would You Make Her Feel at Home, expanded on the group's eclectic musical style. In 1973, Black Oak Arkansas released their fourth album Raunch 'N' Roll Live. It was their fifth album, High on the Hog, released later that year, that established solid commercial success by peaking at number 52 on the Billboard albums chart. Vocalist Ruby Starr also toured with the band during this period. Her raspy voice can be heard on the group's remake of LaVern Baker's 1957 hit "Jim Dandy," which reached number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100. Lyrics I've felt the high of experience Holdin' a woman Gettin good lovin' Comin to reality My thoughts start to blend I've seen things I can't explain But hope to see again I churned and turned around Her love that stayed the same The look within her eye Is like the eye of a hurricane It's a storm of passion Between two lovers A storm of passion creating others I've seen a flyin horse In a cosmic hurricane Makin love was my way To the astral plane I have flown on the wings Of imagination Through a storm of seven universes All surroundin heaven I saw them turn around A source that stayed the same The isle of paradise Is like the eye of a hurricane It's a storm of passion Just like two lovers A storm of passion cheating others A storm of passion stimulation A storm of passion that love creation A storm of passion a warm explosion
