Formed out of Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue The Alpha Band proved to be the launching pad for T-Bone Burnette as a songwriter and producer. A strange and quirky trio consisting of Burnette, Steven Soles and David Mansfeild, their sound was filled with guitars, mandolins, violins and other unconventional instruments for a rock band. They made three albums before separating.

*Burnette's first solo album included some songs that were leftover from the last Alpha Band LP. I never really knew which songs were the leftovers but I included two of my favorite songs from that album.
