There is a lot to like.

Second album 2nd Street is well worth a listen. There are also a couple of BSC live albums with Kossoff.

Finally figured out the chorus of All The Girls Are Crazy - the girls are all crazy about 'the way I ride' - hence the cowboy cowgirl metaphors.

Thanks, live album from Croydon Fairfield Halls!

Much stronger album than I remembered - I was somewhat blinkered in my thinking regarding blues derived rock at the time which may partly explain it.

Yes.

There is a good one from Croydon, recording quality good. That was the tour for tonight's album, later cancelled.

The other live recording is an audience recording of Kossoff's last performance. Worth hearing, but you won't be back.

Thanks everyone.

I am moving this weekend, just going to take the stereo apart now the PSL is done.

Hope to join you from my new home next time!

To absent friends, Reap, and Koss.

Not far. Still Southeast London. Brockley way.

Closer to work and city centre. Some nice nearby music venues. Including The Ivy House, where I have enjoyed Martin Carthy and also The Burning Hell.
