Two time Epic recording artist and former member of The Boyzz from Illinoizz and The B'zz, Michael Tafoya heads this blues based rock 'n roll power trio. Michael, together with Chris McCoy on drums and Erik Osland on bass, fill any venue with driving rhythm, dynamic leads and soaring vocals.       Some Boyzz from Illinoizz memories....   Ted Nugent's mom's favorite band! The album "Too Wild to Tame" did okay, but the two night benefit that The Boyzz from Illinoizz did with them at the Agora Cleveland in 1978 was awesome. Opening the show were the Iron City Houserockers featuring Joe Gruchecky. Meat Loaf introduced the Boyzz who brought the house down and then brought out Ian Hunter, Mick Ronson, Karla DiVito, and Ellen Foley with an amazing all-star jam at the end of the show. The entire show was filmed. courtesy of Cleveland International Records     The Boyzz at the 1st Loop Fest at the Chicago International Amphitheater. Review This lost metal curio from biker band the Boyzz shoots Southern fried boogie Point Blank into a mean horn section, resulting in an grizzly slaughter of Blood, Sweat & Tears (heavy on the first two). Lou Marini and Alan Rubin blew with BST, among others. Separating the Boyzz from the men, yelper "Dirty" Dan Buck cooks speeder "Lean 'N' Mean" raw on the barbe, and the seven-minute "Destined to Die" evokes an uneasy rider raging from white line fever. Only in the '70s could these Boyzz from Illinois get away with the too-whacked Too Wild to Tame, and it shows. Keyboardist Anatole Halinkovich (now Tony Hall, ) axeman Mike Tafoya, and bassist Dave Angel cleared out and cleaned up to create the B'zz. ~ Doug Stone, All Music Guide     Mike Tafoya, Anatole Halinkovich, Dave Angel, Kent Cooper, Dirty Dan Buck, Gil Pini         And who can forget....  "Too Wild to Tame", "Hoochie Koochie", "Wake it up, Shake it Up", "Shady Lady", "Back to Kansas", "Destined to Die", "Lean n' Mean", "Diane, pt.2", "Good Life Shuffle"       The B'zz.....
