Background notes

Archive material and source history

Nine Pound Hammer formed in 1974 with Bob Holz as the singer-songwriter. They came out of West Virginia with a blues-rock sound that felt rough around the edges from the start. Their self-titled debut arrived in 1977, and they kept putting out records like 'The Hammer & the Anvil' in 1982 and 'Footprints' in 1991.

Some of their songs got attention for being direct. 'Adios, Farewell, Goodbye, Good Luck, So Long' became a kind of goodbye anthem. Other tracks in their catalog include 'Cadillac Inn,' 'Don't Get No,' and 'Gear Head Blues.'

Over time, different musicians played with the band while Holz stayed at the center. They've kept performing and recording without much fuss about their place in music history.
