These suits were referred to as Captain Kangaroo suits because of the bold white pockets.

When all the groups were featuring bus pictures on albums, we found this burned out school bus for our shot. 1973

Same bus, different angle. Dave Clemmons had joined the group as a drummer.

Jesus Music was a collection of songs written by members of the Chords. A very contemporary collection.

Our Twelve Days of Christmas (not what you think). Side 2 was a Cantata that we performed for the season.

1976 - We brought out all the instruments for a variety filled show. Strings, horns, keyboards

A rare Chords configuration. To expand our reach into the "convention market" we added our wives to perform selected shows. These lovely ladies added beauty to the group. Linda & Bonnie Jo

Bonnie continued to play keyboard and sing into 1977 on selected shows.

1977 - the NEW 1977 MCI MC8 Crusader. New shell from the factory.
