I know him from his collaboration with what became Brand X in the mid-70's.

He also made a fine album with Rick van der Linden of Trace - Wild Connections.
Definitely worth seeking out on Spotify
Highly recommended

Jack's eerie violin adds a nice dimension

British cover is better.
Still can't make my mind up about the cockney intro - can find it irritating, other times the sheer sound of the accent amuses me.
Love the guitar work, yet again.
