Loneliest night Line up: Doogie White - Vocals Chic McSherry - Guitar Alex Carmichael - Bass Andy Mason - Keyboards Stuart "Bunty" Brown - drums Record Label / Year of Release: Bazooka Music 1985 Notes: La Paz were formed in Lanarkshire , Scotland in the early 1980's by Chic McSherry, Doogie White and Alex Carmichael. In 2008 La Paz reformed for fun and to raise money to help disadvantaged kids go to school in La Paz, Mexico. Fun!!! We're not out to prove anything or to recapture our youth or to answer any critics or even to look for a new audience. It just feels great to be doing something again that was so important to us all and was such a big part of our lives. But we know from the reaction so far that lots of people want to hear us play again and that is just fantastic...and along the way we're hoping to raise a little money for some kids in La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Last word to Doogie: "Playing in La Paz was certainly the most fun of any band I have ever been in. We took it very seriously though and our professionalism was never in question. What killed us, in hindsight, was image. At that time bands like Bon Jovi and Whitesnake were going all pretty-boy and then Europe came along and everyone in the music business wanted to sign androgynous blonde Swedes. It just wasn't us and we were probably stupid for trying to get that "look", but that was the only way that anyone in A&R would talk to us. Classic case of "never mind the music, feel the spandex". So we lost our deal before we got our first album released... such is life. It was a great wee rock band though and we've all remained true friends. We do occasional get-together shows just for the hell of it and man do we have a blast. We've also put up our old demos for sale online with the proceeds going to charity. Buy 'em all folks!
