PROFILE: The archetypal boy-next-door, Greg left his Baltimore home to become a latter-day San Francisco folkie. But like numerous ones before him, he proved that folk and rock don't have to be mutually exclusive, and began plugging into Buddy Holly melodies and harder rock guitars. After years of touring, a few Bruce Springsteen covers along the way, Greg finally hit with a song that sounded a bit like they used to write 'em!

BEER: Boy Howdy!

Authentic There are zillions of ways to get your name in the papers, but only one way to slake your thirst for CREEM. The quality standards we set down in the dawn of the Seventies have been on a Wild Mouse ride through the Highlands, the Lowlands, and the Barstools. Every drop's a hoot. .. „ ,

Always say Boy Howdy!
