Does it feel like 1975? The Dwight Twilley Band, via Oklahoma City, hit the charts with "I'm on Fire," signed to a small Los Angeles-based record company, Shelter Records, formed by Leon Russell and Denny Cordell. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers were labelmates. Under appreciated, the killer pop duo of Twilley and Phil Seymour finally took turns to solo projects, then...Not to worry, Boy Wonder abides!
