Nielsen Pearson Band

Country Rock / West Coast Band, formed 1978. In the same category as Richard Page and Steve George (Pages, Mr Mister) and “Bugatti-Musker” you have Reed Nielsen and Mark Pearson and their teamwork was called “Nielsen Pearson”. They released three albums, and re-released “Nielsen Pearson” and “Blind Luck” on one cd at the label Vivid Sound Corporation, Japan. It started back in 1978 with the release of “The Nielsen Pearson Band”. This album is more in the country music style, but you could hear the roots to the west coast music. In 1980 they brought Peter Wolf, Richard Landis, Tom Scott and David Foster into the studio to work on the second album. In the same year that it was released, the album became successful for Nielsen Pearson, including the tune “Annie”. Their 3rd album features Steve Lukather, Michael Landau, Carlos Vega, Neil Stubenhaus, Robbie Buchanan, Lenny Castro, Joe Chemay and others. This release features the tunes Hasty Heart, Sentimental, Fade Away and Too Got To Last. Nielsen Pearson broke up after the 3rd album.
