THE CHAPPARRALS WAS AN ABSOLUTELY PHENOMINAL BAND BASED IN ATLANTA, GEORGIA AND ON THE NATIONAL SCENE IN THE 1970'S AND 80'S. ORIGINATING IN A SMALL COUNTRY TOWN (WINSTON, GEORGIA) THE GROUP MOVED QUICKLY FROM PLAYING SMALL NIGHTCLUBS TO PERFORMING ON STAGES SUCH AS GARRETT COLISEUM IN MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA, LAKELAND COLISEUM IN LAKELAND, FLORIDA, AND VENUES ALL THE WAY FROM THE OMNI IN ATLANTA, GEORGIA TO THE FAMOUS RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL IN NEW YORK. WHEREVER THE CHAPPARRALS PLAYED, THE PEOPLE KNEW THAT THEY WERE IN FOR A SHOW. THE BAND NOT ONLY PLAYED WELL, THEY HAD AN AWSOME STAGE SHOW AND THE AUDIENCE LOVED IT. THE BAND WAS SUPER CLEAN, AND BILLED ITSELF AS A DRUG-FREE, ALCOHOL-FREE, AND CIGARETTE-FREE GROUP. SUPER ACTS SUCH AS MARVIN GAYE, THE COMMODORES, AND LARRY GRAHAM (GRAHAM CENTRAL STATION) WERE VERY COMFORTABLE SHARING THE STAGE WITH THE CHAPPARRALS BECAUSE THEY KNEW THAT THE BAND WAS PROFESSIONAL, AND HAD A REPUTATION OF "TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS" WHEN IT HIT...
