PETE BROWN and PIBLOKTO!

 

PETE BROWN and PIBLOKTO! - 1970 THOUSANDS ON A RAFT  re.1993.

The story :

Peter Ronald Brown (25-12-1940 – 19-5-2023) was an English performance poet, lyricist, and singer.

the First Real Poetry Band brought Brown to the attention of the band Cream. Originally, he was seen as a writing partner for drummer Ginger Baker, but the group quickly discovered that he worked better with bassist Jack Bruce. Of the situation, Bruce later remarked: "Ginger and Pete were at my flat trying to work on a song but it wasn't happening. My wife Janet then got with Ginger and they wrote 'Sweet Wine' while I started working with Pete."

Together, Brown and Bruce wrote many of Cream's songs, including the hits "I Feel Free", "White Room" and "SWLABR"; Brown, Bruce and Clapton also wrote "Sunshine of Your Love"

After the break-up of Cream, Bruce and Brown continued to write songs together. Brown wrote the lyrics for most of Bruce's solo albums.

Brown formed Pete Brown and His Battered Ornaments in 1968.

Later on he formed "Piblokto!"  after Brown's dismissal from the Battered Ornaments, and was active between 1969 and 1971. The original Piblokto! members were; Brown on vocals, Laurie Allan on drums, Jim Mullen on guitar, Roger Bunn on bass and Dave Thompson on organ. Most of their releases were for Harvest Records.

GREEN  BULLFROG   -  1971  NATURAL MAGIC  re.2017.

RARE  RECORDINGS !!

Green Bullfrog was the brainchild of producer Derek Lawrence of DEEP PURPLE 2 first albums, . Built around longtime occasional collaborator Ritchie Blackmore, the session band also featured the pseudonymous talents of Tony Ashton ("Bevy"), Big Jim Sullivan ("Boss"), Earl Jordan ("Jordan"), Albert Lee ("Pinta"), Charles "Chas" Hodges ("Sleepy"), Matthew Fisher ("Sorry"), Rod Alexander ("Vicar"), and Blackmore's Deep Purple bandmate Ian Paice ("Speedy"). Contrary to rumor and the inferences of the Ecy Street label reissue, however, neither Roger Glover nor Jon Lord were involved.

 With Blackmore, Sullivan, and Lee involved, it is naturally a guitar-heavy event, and there's certainly some searing playing to be found amid the good-time grooves and loose-limbed energies; the seven-minute title track is a particular tour de force. 

 Tracks: 1. My Baby Left Me 2. Makin' Time 3. Lawdy Miss Clawdy 4. Bullfrog 5. I Want You 6. I'm A Free Man 7. Walk A Mile In My Shoes 8. Lovin' You Is Good For Me Baby
