Melton, Levy the Dey Bros., with a name more suited for business cards than a rock band, comprised young veterans of the '60s California rock scene. Barry Melton, by far the most recognizable name in the quartet, had been in Country Joe the Fish. Bassist/vocalist Rick Dey had been in the Wilde Knights and the Vejtables, and had co-written Paul Revere the Raiders' Just Like Me. Singer/drummer Tony Dey had been in the Daily Flash, and Jay Levy sang (as did everyone in the band) and played keyboards. Their sole, self-titled album came out on Columbia in 1972, co-produced by Michael Bloomfield (who also plays some guitar). It's a modest yet likable set of just-post-acid San Francisco Bay Area rock, intermingling plenty of blues, soul, and country influences. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi
