DELANEY BRAMLETT – Mobius Strip – (Columbia) – 1973
I probably shouldn’t like Delaney Bramlett as much as I do. I don’t like white blues much (well, unless it is bastardised or taken on a flying carpet somewhere). The “faithful” stuff, when white, I find a little artificial. I … Continue reading
CHIP TAYLOR – Chip Taylor’s Last Chance – (Warner Brothers) – 1973

JOHNNY CASH & JUNE CARTER CASH – Johnny Cash and His Woman – (CBS) – 1973

GLADYS KNIGHT & THE PIPS – Imagination – (Buddah) – 1973
When talking about Gladys Knight & The Pips "Neither One of Us" (1973) album which immediately preceded this I said, "Gladys Knight and the Pips came through the Motown factory in the 60s with a few top 20 pop hits … Continue reading
BADFINGER – Ass – (Apple) – 1973
Badfinger – what happened? The question is often raised in relation to this band. They are variously referred to as starcrossed, tragic, unlucky, the victims of bad management. All these things are, perhaps, true but when enough excuses are put … Continue reading
SHAWN PHILLIPS – Bright White – (A&M) – 1973
I'm tired. I've just spent the day painting – house painting. Painting is probably the easiest of the trades… Err, wait, I know a few house painters so I probably should qualify that. It's the easiest of the trades in … Continue reading
