So, in my wide and varied wanderings on the 'Net I came across this Web site which casually mentions a band that Terry was in named "Copperbrick Window".
Am I not a true fan because I have never heard of this band? Can anyone shed some light on this?

Found my own answer in the Timeline:
| quote: |
# The "CopperBrick Window" was formed from the remnants of Scarlet Staircase. "Window" was Tom Ransom, Terry’s brother-in-law Phil Terrell (Phil is Terry’s wife’s brother), Les Moreno, Dan Ransom and Phil Kent.
The band had two lead singers, after the fashion of the “Scheme” and a very popular local San Jose band called "People" (which featured Larry Norman as one of the two lead singers for that band). They had the occasion to play with “People”. Terry and Timothy went to Los Gatos High, Larry was from neighboring rival Leigh High (Randy Stonehill also went to Leigh).
"CopperBrick Window" was only considered a working title until they found their own name, which they did before they played their first official gig. Terry never thought of himself as being *IN* “CopperBrick Window” since they agreed they wanted to have their own identity.
# “Copperbrick Window” was managed by Terry's (then future) brother-in-law Stan Sult (Stan is Terry's wife's sister's husband).(Source: Timothy Warner) |

pup - that was a great link..I did not know that Larry married Uncle Randys ex wife-geez, these get around as much as George Harrison and Eric Clapton -I guess.
Oh wait- I mean as much as Steve Tyler and Todd Rundgren..sorry about that.

Ahh yeah... thats actually one of many sites that is now using Wikipedia articles as their own. This is happening more and more these days. Even some search engines are starting to use the articles as the primary result - listed above web links.
Thats one reason we've been fixing up a few of those Wikipedia articles and even adding a bunch of new ones pointing to DA, the 77s and Lost Dogs. It's nice free advertisement.

As long as they get pointed to the real websites 
Otherwise, it'd be a shame.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this site includes links - other than the original wikipedia link. But, at least that links here.
Some of the search engines and other websites I've seen that use the wikipedia articles include the entire article - pictures and links. Like this one http://accoona.answers.com/daniel%20amos
