The only album from London (live-were in 1968-1969). Musicians from Bristol organist Gwyn Mathias, and drummer Keith Whiting in 1968 moved to London and formed a group there with guitarist Del Watkins and bassist John Dover. After searching for a vocalist to record the album was declared the Scot Roger Cairns (later a very well known). The group performed a sincere and straightforward heavier blues-rock, dressed in psychedelic clothes. Also performed covers of BBKing, Sehorn James, Muddy Waters and Otis Spann … Interestingly, in the same studio at the same time (but at other times), Tommy recorded his group The Who.
