Biography
American hard rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1966, named after the outlaw Jesse James's gang. The classic power trio of guitarist Joe Walsh, drummer Jim Fox and bassist Dale Peters made 'Yer' Album' (1969), 'James Gang Rides Again' (1970) and 'Thirds' (1971) for #ABC Records#. After Walsh left, Roy Kenner, Domenic Troiano and Tommy Bolin fronted later line-ups on #Atco Records# albums including 'Bang' (1973) and 'Miami' (1974), before the band split in 1977. The Walsh, Peters and Fox trio has reunited occasionally since 1996.
