In 1974, original drummer/vocalist Peter Hoorlebeke (Rivera) left Rare Earth to record with his new group H.U.B. Gil Bridges and the remainder of the band used session musicians to record two more albums, “Back To Earth” and “Midnight Lady” , before the Rare Earth label was closed down in 1977. The group’s story does not end there, however. Barney Ales rejoined Motown in 1977 after leaving the company for several years. He set up a new label called Prodigal that was similar in intent to what he did with the Rare Earth label. Ales got Hoorelbeke, Bridges, and several other members of the band together to record “Rarearth” for Prodigal. The album was only a modest hit but it convinced the participants to record again. By the following year, the 1972 line-up of Rare Earth was back in the studio to record two new albums, “Band Together” and “Grand Slam”. The first single from Band Together” was “Warm Ride”. The song had been written by the Bee Gees who were the hottest act in the world following the success of Saturday Night Fever and its mega-hit soundtrack. “Warm Ride” was Rare Earth’s first Top 40 single in six years and would be their final hit.
