[Music] Threadful of songs from the West coast circa 1970 (one for the older NSCer)

[Buzzer]

Found the chap. His name was Craig Smith but recorded under a whole host of names. Considering he was completely out with the fairies when he recorded this (apparently playing all the instruments), the quality is bloody good, much better than Syd Barrett's drug-addled efforts. Give it a listen and see what you think.

Never heard this before, on a quick skim listen it sounds earlier than 72, more a 60's sound to it.

Some of it is ..........er...............far out man

Sorry Buzzer, Syd was weirder, wrote lyrics to die for and was much more original...imo!

Yeah. The first song is pretty good but he does rather go off on one with some of the others. I know what you mean about sounding a bit 60s. The first track has a bit of Beatles Taxman about it.

Saw them at the Dome. Same night as Rod Stewart was at the Brighton Centre. The Dome was half empty so they called everyone down to the front.
I liked them!

Keeping to the West Coast theme...

Weren't they East Coast

I couldn't give a shit mate.

I'd say the west coast is vastly overrated. West coast vibe, with east coast balls, what's not to like?
