The Hassles - Country Boy [1969] (Billy Joel)

The Hassles' second and final studio album, "Hour of the Wolf," was released on January 23, 1969 by United Artists. Unlike their first LP, this album contains all original material by the band, mostly written by Billy Joel. Drummer Jon Small and former singer/frontman John Dizek both have 2 co-writing credits. Also unlike their first album, it was never reissued on CD and has been out of print since the early 1980s. 7 of the 8 tracks were later released on a 1999 Razor & Tie "best of" compilation alongside the rest of their '60s catalogue, but the "Hour of the Wolf" LP has become a collector's item and sought after by Billy Joel fans. The Hassles would split up later in 1969 after this record and their next few singles flopped, but Joel and drummer Jon Small would continue to work as the heavy metal duo "Attila," and released their first (and only) album in 1970.
