Fanny - Blind Alley (1971) | LIVE

LYRICS (elyrics.net) ---------------------------------------------------- Take care of yourself, this is your story Your voice is shakin' the walls, and they're crumbling down But what can I do except stand here watching you My fearful eyes are paralyzed with visions of tomorrows swept away And someone's gonna get burned We're leading ourselves down a blind alley No one to watch over us as we stumble and fall But what can I see, except all your history A reaper grim sent saracens who cannot see the writing on the walls And someone's gonna get burned I see my christian brothers raising angry hands And though they try show me, I still don't understand ‘Cause there's a war going on And you're down in the streets We're clearing the way for a new order Old ways are losing their hold, now we've opened our eyes But what can I say except God speed anyway A destiny and its got to be, and later on they'll judge you right or wrong Think about what you're doin'... Blind alley, you're going down a blind alley Blind alley, you're going down a blind alley ------------------------------------------------------------ Fanny was an American all-female band, active in the early 1970s. They were one of the first notable rock groups to be made up entirely of women, the third to sign with a major label (after Goldie & the Gingerbreads and the Pleasure Seekers), and the first to release an album on a major label (in 1970). They achieved two top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 and released five albums. Sisters June Millington (born April 14, 1948, Manila, Philippines) and Jean Millington (born May 25, 1949, Manila, Philippines) moved with their family from the Philippines to Sacramento, California in 1961. In high school they formed an all-girl band called the Svelts with June on guitar, Jean on bass, Addie Lee on guitar, and Brie Brandt on drums. Brandt was later replaced by Alice de Buhr (born September 4, 1949, Mason City, Iowa). When the Svelts disbanded, de Buhr and Lee formed another all-female group called Wild Honey. The Millington sisters later joined this band, which played Motown covers and eventually moved to Los Angeles. In January 1970, Nickey Barcley was asked to join Fanny as a singer and keyboardist. She was one of the main songwriters and lead singers in the group, and appeared on all their albums, adding soul, blues and funk influences to the group's overall sound.
