Myke Scavone - The Doughboys, Ram Jam and The Yardbirds.

Myke Scavone in conversation with David Eastaugh  Following the disbandment of the Doughboys, Scavone began a career as a session drummer throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s. He was performing on demos for producers Jerry Kasenetz and Jeffry Katz when he joined the newly formed Ram Jam, led by guitarist Bill Bartlett, in 1977. The band had found success with a cover of the Lead Belly song "Black Betty". Scavone performed on both of the band's albums, Ram Jam and Portrait of the Artist as a Young Ram before the band disbanded in 1978. He did not perform on the band's only hit, "Black Betty", as it had been recorded by Bill Bartlett's former band Starstruck and credited to Ram Jam following Starstruck's disbandment.
