| | The Firm (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Both Page and Rodgers refused to play any material from their former bands and instead opted for a selection of songs from both their solo albums and new songs which were heavily infused with a soulful and more commercially accessible sound, courtesy of Franklin's fretless bass guitar underpinning and understated song structure. | | | In subsequent press interviews, Page had indicated that the band was never meant to last more than two albums. | | | Formed in 1984, the band—although having a distinguished pedigree (and thus qualifying as a supergroup)—had only mediocre album sales, although they did have sellout tours. |

| | The Firm is on shaky ground |
| | Although its lyrics can be catchy at times, this band lacks the energy needed in today's fast-paced, energy-driven music industry. | | | Maybe it's the significant lack of audience participation in a "live" album, or that the Beach Boys/Buddy Holly sound doesn't coincide with the eclectic edge the band is looking for with this album. | | | The only times when the album drags is when the band relies on the conventional, rather than further delving into the originality it displays on the majority of the disc. |

| | The music industry works in such a way that bands usually don't pull a considerable profit until their third albums, because it costs so much to record the music, make videos and get songs onto the radio. | | | Around the time of that album's release, the band hit a publicity coup d'etat when a high school student in Zeeland, Mich., was suspended for wearing a Korn T-shirt. | | | Most bands, in fact, aren't remotely as successful as their MTV counterparts, and often aren't able to pay back their record labels before getting dropped from them. |

| | Rodgers' "Radioactive" was actually a minor hit for the band, its quirkiness overcoming the goofiness of the lyrics. | | | However, when the band's self-titled debut was actually released in 1985, it received a critical drubbing and was all but ignored by the record-buying public. | | | While it is true that this album isn't as uniformly excellent as Led Zeppelin's work, it is the best from this short-lived band and turned out to be Page's most consistent effort from the entire decade of the '80s. |

The picture on the right is from the 1987 Summer Outing, where we performed as "The Breach (of Contract) Boys" and "The Chadbournettes." One of the songs we did was "Little Co-Op" (to the tune of "Little Deuce Coupe"). | | | We performed two songs from the Album, and received a very appreciative response from the audience. | | | After a long hiatus, and following the successful and widely-publicized 1998 release of "The Lawyer's Holiday Humor Album," the firm kindly asked me to reconstitute the Band, which I gladly did for the 1998 Holiday Party. |
