Wow! What a great pull!
I have Moxy's "Sweet Reputation" on my personal "Best Rock of the '70's" CD.

I did not know Tommy Bolin played guitar on their first album.
The independently produced self-titled album, MOXY, also known as the Black Album,photo was recorded over two weeks in early 1975. Mark Smith of Bachman–Turner Overdrive fame acted as co-producer for the album. While in Van Nuys, California at Sound City Studio recording this album, session guitarist Tommy Bolin was in the studio next door.[8] Bolin was impressed with the no-nonsense, to-the-bones sound of Moxy, that when asked by the band's manager Roland Paquin to fill in he said yes. Earl Johnson was actually supposed to have done all the guitar parts, but got into a disagreement with the producer and was consequently tossed out of the studio. | |

ZOMG AC/DC opened for them on tour! I should probably just link the whole Wiki page, LOL.
July 27, 1977, Joe Anthony brought Moxy to Texas for their first headline appearance in the US in Austin at Armadillo World Headquarters.[23] The next night in San Antonio at the Municipal Auditorium and on July 29 in Corpus Christi, Texas, at Ritz Music Hall, with AC/DC as the opening act for all three dates.[24]
