The right place at the wrong time. That could be the epitaph on the gravestone
of Black Cat Bones. Having acted as unofficial house band for a number of
visiting US artists during the British blues boom of the mid to late Sixties,
and survived a potentially fatal line-up change into the bargain, they finally
made it to vinyl rather late in the day. This, their first and only album,
reached the racks in the last months of the Sixties, just as progressive rock
was in the ascendancy. That Black Cat Bones remains a name is due to two musicians whose names remain stubbornly absent from the credits. Celebrated guitarist Paul Kossof would go on to superstar status as a founder of member of Free, but started his career in earnest in these ranks. And though neither he nor drummer Simon Kirke appear here, Koss's featured replacement is Rod Price, a player of no mean ability who would later take his axe-wielding skills to stateside fame and fortune with Foghat. Rod Price was quite different in approach to Kossof, his fast, fluid style contrasting with the howling sustain of his predecessor - but he was clearly no slouch either, as he proved on the final track. The self-penned 'Good Lookin' Woman' is the one song which Price tackled lead vocal. More importantly, it's a guitar tour de force, fading out prematurely and leaving the listener wondering exactly what would have happened next. |
