PHOTOS OF THE RADIATORS BY KURT SWANSON

JEFFERSON PARK FESTIVAL CHICAGO, IL 2002

Formed in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA in 1978, the long-serving Radiators are one of that city's most popular and enduring funky rock 'n' roll bands. Keyboardist/vocalist Ed Volker and guitarist/vocalist Camile Baudoin began playing together back in the mid-60s, while drummer Frank Bua started accompanying them in 1970. Guitarist/vocalist Dave Malone and bassist Reggie Scanlan played with another New Orleans band, Roadapple, and the five musicians fused as the Rhapsodizers in the mid-70s. The name was changed to the Radiators in 1978 and Work Done On Premises, was released two years later on their own Croaker label.~ unknown
