Badger (band) - White Lady

White Lady

By 1974, the band had been reduced to Kaye and Dyke. They recruited bassist, Kim Gardner, who had worked with Dyke in Ashton, Gardner & Dyke. Paul Pilnick, formerly of Stealers Wheel, joined on guitar, as did singer Jackie Lomax.

Lomax proceeded to turn them into the type of R&B/soul band he had used on his solo albums. The band became a vehicle for Lomax's songs and singing. During this period, they released one LP, White Lady, on Epic Records, produced by Allen Toussaint. All ten songs were written or co-written by Lomax. Guests on the album included Jeff Beck (contributing a guitar solo to the title track).

  • 1. "Dream of You"
  • 2. "Everybody, Nobody"
  • 3. "Listen to Me"
  • 4. "Don't Pull the Trigger"
  • 5. "Just the Way It Goes"
  • 6. "White Lady"
  • 7. "Be With You"
  • 8. "Lord Who Give Me Life"
  • 9. "One More Dream to Hold"
  • 10. "Hole Thing"

However, before the album's release, the band had split into two factions, with Lomax and Gardner leading a short-lived band called White Lady, before Lomax returned to a solo career.

"White Lady" b/w "Don't Pull the Trigger" was released as a single in May 1974.
