Author Thom Ryerson was finally able to buy the last two elusive Thunderbird singles. He just decided to look in the Discogs records for sale section two weeks ago and found them both there, Dusty Road's "I'm Waiting for a Train," and Roger Quick's "Doing the best that I Can."
This single was Roger's second highest charting record, peaking at #32 on the Canadian Country charts in 1977. This record and the one above it were the hardest to find, which means they may not have sold as well as some of thier others.
This gives me 31 Thunderbird singles, released between 1975 and 1979. There could still be something out there I don't know about, because there never was a master list. I built up everything from my own reserach, beginning back in early 2015 as I slowly learned about Roger Quick's career. He was the catalyst for all of this, and I am in his debt. Marilyn Caswell and John Wedge were also very instrumental in my early days of research.
The last thing I need now are the 8-Tracks. I still need Roger Quick's first album, "The Rainbow Special," and his fourth album, "The Roger Quick Show." I also need Dug Bond's debut solo album, "Leaving Loving You," and Dusty Road's 1976 self titled effort.
