w/ Ron Wood, Elton John, Tropical Island Steel Band
Do you remember? Dave Ball had played that superb guitar on "Procol Harum, Live at Edmonton" 1972. On this one he shows all his competence. Why did he quit Procol Harum?
Melodious bluesrock remembering "Mountain" with Felix Pappalardi, who was the producer of Bedlam and played all the keyboards with exception of "Sweet sister Mary" (Max Middleton).
Cozy Powell, drums.
Recorded Live at the Golden Slipper, Las Vegas. Year of recording?
Listen to A5, Jimmy Drew's "410 East": lifts up like a rocket. Smokin'!!
And once more again this track, dancing into this night......
Jazz-rock. Jeff Allen, drums. Driving guitar playing by Les Davidson. This is a forgotten one. Not a gem, but interesting phase of the band.
What about the climate in 1978?

Gatefold cover. ambient experimental music using the Frippertronics system
Listen to the jumping bass played by Nick Lowe and the organ by Paul Carrack on title track B1. Also track B2 "You may already be a winner" is a winner. What great songwriting! Produced by Nick Lowe.
In fact, in 2000 Eric Clapton was riding with the king, divinely.
