About Rick Nelson & The Stone Canyon Band

It was 1970 that Rick Nelson (also known as Ricky Nelson) had a US Top 40 hit with a recording of Bob Dylan's "She Belongs to Me" - the recording being with the Stone Canyon Band. The Stone Canyon Band started out as Tom Brumley, Allen Kemp, Pat Shanahan and Randy Meisner, but the line-up parted company with Nelson and changed their name to "Canyon". Nelson soon put together a new Stone Canyon band, and began to tour for the Garden Party album. This, and later versions, of the Stone Canyon Band included: Tim Cetera, Steve Love, Denis Larden, Ty Grimes and Jay DeWitt White. All told, they were pioneers of what became known as Country Rock.
