The Borrowed Times
The Borrowed Times were a Denver-Based
1960's Rock & Roll Band that formed in 1984. They quickly attracted the attention of many local club owners that were riding on the recent success of a resurgence in this style of music brought on by the
"Big Chill" movement. They were most famous for their skinny black ties, zany on-stage antics, and the fine manner in which they perfected many of the classics of the 1960's.
Their Theme song was the classic "Wooly Bully" but they actually recorded an excellent remake of the Left Banke's eerie and haunting "Walk Away Rene" in 1986, the same year they were voted Denver's Best Dance Band by Westword Magazine.
The original members included Roger Maglio on guitar and keyboards, Greg Schriener on Bass, Billy Hyatt on lead guitar, and Jim Zingelman on drums. Roger Maglio went on to record a solo album in 1988 while still with the Band entitled "Songs from the Rocks"and now resides in Orlando. Jim Zingelman left in 1989 to pursue a career in Stand-Up comedy and now lives in Albuquerque. The band disbanded in 1991 but left a strong and popular legacy throughout not only the Denver area, but many of the neighbouring cities and towns where they logged over 500 performances through the years.
Greg and Billy continue to play in and around the Denver area.
