From his classic (and IMO greatest) album (1971).
That guy made his guitar talk.
Not the greatest lyricist though….
Smooth and saxy.
The late great Dick Heckstall Smith on sax , Dave Greenslade on Hammond, silky vocals by James Litherland, (also on guitar), driven by bassist Tony Reeve and one the finest jazz drummers Jon Hiseman.
Been so long since I posted that I had had trouble finding me own blog
Anyway, since I’m here….. a classic from Keef and pals (with intro by his ex boss)
I was 16 when this album came out. Sadly I didn’t hear it for a couple of years, the musical influence of my life at that time was my (now) brother in law who’s a few years older. He introduced me loads of bands – Taste, IF, Colosseum, Blodwyn Pig…the list goes on, but didn’t include Caravan.
The drugs of choice certainly resulted in some great music…and bizarre lyrics
Nice video
