Nitzinger

Nitzinger may be the music group named after Texan guitarist John Nitzinger, whose longer career offers yielded sporadic produces and on-stage performances for over 3 decades, beginning in the later ’60s. Hailing from the town of Fort Worthy of, John Nitzinger was, by his very own accounts, a precocious songwriter and musician and was involved with several rings and nondescript one produces in the middle- to past due ’60s. Nonetheless it wasn’t before next decade the fact that Nitzinger name started gaining identification — first being a sometime songwriter for fellow Texans Bloodrock, and, after recruiting bassist Curly Benton and drummer Linda Waring, to make a power trio called after himself. This lineup documented an eclectic eponymous debut record (component bluesy boogie rock and roll, component esoteric post-psych) for Capitol in 1971 and briefly broke in to the American graphs’ Best 200 using a spunky Southern rock and roll single known as “Louisiana Cock Combat.” A sophomore work named (probably relatively prematurely) One Feet in History implemented in 1973 and presented second guitarist Pests Henderson, but attained no do it again trip in to the graphs. Therefore, after collaborating with Henderson on another Southern hard rock and roll album billed only to Thunder, it wasn’t a long time before Nitzinger — the music group — have been decreased to John and assorted program musicians, recklessly tinkering with everything among rock and roll and disco on 1976’s Live Better…Electrically. The guitarist would later on use Carl Palmer’s PM task and Alice Cooper during his Zipper Catches Pores and skin recording and tour, but offers otherwise been mainly forgotten beyond your state of Tx, where he informally retired to after many years of street function (he also apparently conquered several addictions and received a struggle with cancer). The brand new millennium finally noticed John Nitzinger record another recording, mixing both fresh materials and re-recorded classics for the properly named HEADING BACK to Tx, released in 2002. And since that time, Nitzinger has continued performing periodic gigs, fostering an on-going musical collaboration with previous Bloodrock friend Jim Rutledge and basking in a reliable rediscovery of his early function because of the information-spreading power of the web.
