Track 2 - Waiting for the Band. Edward.
Or was that a joke? He probably was literally waiting for the band to turn up.
I get the impression that this wasn't unusual for him. _________________ The jibbedy-jabber-jaw jabbing at your funny bone, umm... Skip the Ovaltine, I'd rather have my honeycomb

| He was from Perivale. Isn't that where Doctor Who's Ace was from? _________________ |

| You could imagine someone like Joe Cocker doing something with this. Making it worse. but shouty. |

| Personally I like his weak, fragile vocals.
They're, well, just him.

| I'm giving it a, perhaps, generous ★★★★.
It's really because I think it's a sweetly melancholic glimpse of a unique and under-appreciated behind-the-scenes maestro, so, despite it's shortcomings, I feel it's worthy of more than average acclaim. _________________ The jibbedy-jabber-jaw jabbing at your funny bone, umm...

| Jimmy McCulloch was in the Grease Band with Joe Cocker. Everything is connected in the world of early British 70s Boogie-Rock |

| Henry McCullough was.
Jimmy McCulloch doesn't seem to have been. _________________ |

| I can't help feeling that if we'd listened to the album in proper order then the votes would've been different. All three of us would've given it 4, 3 and 2 stars all the same, but it would've been different ones of us. _________________ The jibbedy-jabber-jaw jabbing at your funny bone, umm...
