Gunhill Road

Gunhill Road

Gunhill Road was an American band, consisting of Glenn Leopold, Steven Goldrich, and Gil Roman (Gil currently lives in San Francisco, California and has played with the Rhythm Rockers and Eddy and the Boppers).

The band released a trio of LPs in the 1970s. The first release, on Mercury Records, was "Gun Hill Road First Stop" in 1971. The second album, "Gunhill Road", was released in 1972 and produced by Kenny Rogers. It was remixed and rereleased in 1973 to great success from the song, "Back When My Hair Was Short". The original recording had heavy drug references while the remix was a growing up story about everything remaining the same. The album received great reviews, and was often featured on many FM and college radio stations.

Gunhill Road recorded "42nd Street" with three different producers: Jay Leer, Kenny Rogers, and Kenny Kerner. "Back When My Hair Was Short" was recorded twice. The original version released in 1972, has more edgy lyrics than the radio ready 1973 release.
