Hope you dig it Peter.

I think their other album The Devil's Interval just has the edge on this one.

Saw the band on one of their British tours. Eric's playing constantly drew admiring looks from Dave.

At a Dave O'Higgins masterclass that I went to on another occasion Dave listed Eric and Canadian Phil Dwyer among his favourite tenormen.

Or as Ray’s/Colletts used to say about their stock -

‘From George Lewis to George Lewis’.

:lol:

I wish more of the tracks on these albums had this level of energy --

Whew!  Miss Peggy Lee and the usual gang of Capitol studio guys tear through this song in just 1:45 and kick all kinds of butt on the way!  And how much ya wanna bet that was no more than the second take, at most, for those guys?

Thanks for the tip. I just ordered It.

A interesting character! (Of course, I knew all about the other one) :-)

Just found a Colletts advert in JJI from July 1977. Hand-drawn cartoon by Ray I think.

In addition to the ‘Harry Barris’ there is ‘From Son House to Sun Ra’ !

The Cartoon has one of the staff wearing T-shirt ‘Varty Haretounian is a Groove’. :D

Ah yes. Farty Hartounian - one of Boston's best.

Dec 1977 advert adds ‘From George Russell to Russell George’ and ‘From Bill Perkins to Bill Perkins’ (never heard of the second Bill). 

Cartoon has Ray as Santa Clause pulling out LP from the sack titled ‘Liberace Plays The Albert Ayler Songbook’. :lol:
