Although their origins go back as far as 1963, the band finally coalesced around inimitable frontman and natural showman Jim \"Dandy\" Mangrum on lead vocals and washboard. Playing a mixture of southern rock, hard rock and country, the band signed to Atlantic subsidiary ATCO Records, with a band featuring Rickie “Ricochet” Reynolds on guitar, Stanley “Goober” Knight on guitar and organ, Pat \"Dirty\" Daugherty on bass guitar and Wayne “Squeezebox” Evans on drums. Named after their hometown of Black Oak in (you guessed it) Arkansas, their first album featured the singles ‘Hot And Nasty’, ‘Uncle Lijiah’ and ‘Lord Have Mercy On My Soul’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir second album for Atco, ‘Keep The Faith’ (CD2), was released less than a year later, in January 1972.

Recorded in December 1972 and released in February 1973, ‘Raunch ‘N’ Roll Live’ (CDs 4 \u0026amp; 5) captures the raw energy and excitement of the band on stage. Expanded to two discs, the live set presents their unique blend of hard rock, southern rock and boogie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDISC ONE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBLACK OAK ARKANSAS (1971)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.  Uncle Lijiah\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.  Memories At the Window\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.  The Hills of Arkansas\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.  I Could Love You\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.  Hot And Nasty\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.  Singing The Blues\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.  Lord Have Mercy on My Soul\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.  When Electricity Came to Arkansas\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBONUS TRACKS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.  Lord Have Mercy On My Soul (Single Edit)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10.  Lord Have Mercy On My Soul (Mono Edit)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDISC TWO\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKEEP THE FAITH (1972)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.  Keep The Faith\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.  Revolutionary All-American Boys\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.  Feet On Earth, Head in Sky\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.  Fever In My Mind\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.  The Big One's Still Coming\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.  White-Headed Woman\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.  We Live on Day To Day\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.  Short Life Line\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.  Don't Confuse What You Don't Know\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDISC THREE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIF AN ANGEL CAME TO SEE YOU, WOULD YOU MAKE HER FEEL AT HOME?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.  Gravel Roads\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.  Fertile Woman\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.  Spring Vacation\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.  We Help Each Other\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.  Full Moon Ride\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.  Our Minds Eye\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.  To Make Us What We Are\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.  Our Eyes Eré on You\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.  Mutants Of the Monster\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDISC FOUR\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOMPLETE RAUNCH ’N’ ROLL LIVE (1973) OVER HERE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.  Gettin' Kinda Cocky\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.  Fever In My Mind\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.  Uncle Liljah\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.  Keep The Faith\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.  Mutants Of the Monster\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.  Hot Rod\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.  Lord Have Mercy On My Soul\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.  Full Moon Ride\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.  When Electricity Came to Arkansas\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10.  Dixie\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11.  Hot And Nasty\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12.  Up\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13.  Movin’\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDISC FIVE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOMPLETE RAUNCH ’N’ ROLL LIVE (1973)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWAY OVER YONDER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.  Getting’ Kinda Cocky\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.  Fever In My Mind\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.  Uncle Liljah\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.  Gigolo\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.  Mutants Of the Monster\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.  Hot Rod\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.  Movin'\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.  Full Moon Ride\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.  When Electricity Came to Arkansas\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10.  Hot And Nasty\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11.  Up\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"CHERRY RED","offers":[{"title":"5CD Box Set","offer_id":51809681899837,"sku":"QHNE5BOX252","price":34.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/files\/blackoakarkansa_qhne4box252_-_jpeg.webp?v=1780923241","url":"https:\/\/sisterray.co.uk\/products\/when-electricity-came-to-arkansas-vol-1-1971-1973","provider":"Sister Ray","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
