LP version. "Out of circulation since 1976, the recordings of the Los Angeles rock band Mogan David and His Winos is finally be available again. The group's lineup featured a 'who's who' of heavyweights in the American music industry, including Harold Bronson and Richard Foos (co-founders of Rhino Records), Paul Rappaport (Columbia Records), and Mark Leviton (Rhino/Warner Music Group). Additionally, the band included Jonathan Kellerman, a New York Times bestselling author known for his series of novels starring the fictional child psychologist Alex Delaware. Started in high school by Bronson, a music-obsessed Los Angeles native, the Winos' band name was derived from Westfield, New York's Mogen David Wine Company, inspired by those crazy band names from the psychedelic era, such as Jefferson Airplane and Strawberry Alarm Clock. The Savage Young Winos LP received some national attention, with Creem Magazine's Lester Bangs writing, 'Side one's at least as listenable as Roxy Music. Hooracha and more power to 'em.' By 1974, Bronson was working as store manager at the recently launched Rhino Records retail store on Westwood Boulevard. In collaboration with the store's owner, Richard Foos, Bronson's Kosher Records evolved into a new independent label, also named Rhino Records. This release of Savage Young Winos follows its predecessor by an amazing 53-year gap. Bronson, who also serves as producer for the project, decided to leave off four songs from the earlier release that he felt hadn't stood the test of time. They have been replaced with a pair of demo tracks, additional live recordings from the period, and two tracks from a Winos' reunion session in 1993. The CD includes 19 tracks packaged with a 24-page booklet with extensive liner notes and rare photos."
