He is a bloke from Scotland and I have admired his singing for a long time before he hit a big one. He sang on 3 albums by a group formed by Ronnie Montrose. The band was called Gamma and I recommend a greatest hits or all of them. Then one day I was driving to work I stop and buy some gas and they always have cassettes and cds' for sale and I saw the new Robin Trower album Passion and had to have it I'm a huge Trower fan. Anyway the beautiful sound that Robin makes came out nice and clear and all of a sudden someone else was singing in my beloved James Dewar's spot and singing it very. It was my friend Davey Pattison (From Gamma)taking the lead vocals while James was very ill. Passion was a great album and now he has gone more of a blues rock. I got to see him at Bogarts in Cincinnati and the P.A was fucked but those Marshalls did the trick for me. I used to be a sound man for rock bands and it is not easy setting up in one hour and trying to figure our which fucking neon light is giving you the nasty 60 cycle hum.

I forgot what a work of pure genius that album was. He was on a hot streak righting his songs and hopefully he keeps the rights to that album instead of selling to Michael to Michael Jackson. Can you believe that Michael owns more of the Beatle
s music than they do. I was working in Prudhoe Bay which was the oil fields in Northern Alaska and out in the Beaufort see too. The made manmade island with huge frigging sand bags and kept making circle until the bags stuck out. The the trucks come out on either the ice road in a truck that has huge ballon tires and go on thin ice. But anyway they made a camp for about 60 people and we were stay on land and got flown out to the site by chopper they dropped these guy's off with their duffle bags and a lot of coolers of hot water. I said why are you bring you stuff to work. He said because we will be running this rig in about 18 hours and the camp will be warm and will have hot showers and sewer. I was totally amazed that snow blows so hard there was a tiny crack in the recreation room and filled the room full of snow we had to take it out the door. I had to dig out a caterpiller 966 front end loader and it was jammed pack full of ice I then had to take reinforced plastic and use a huge space heater with a hose and thaw that baby out. It's amazing how fast they crank over specially if you plug in the block heater. My friend sent me a few cassets ever 2 weeks with a couple bags of smoke. The Sony Walkman had just came out it was 1980 it was 40 to 60 below zero and we were on a hill. I said to my friend we need music or I'm going crazy. He showed up that was like a car stereo and we shared it during the day. 2 weeks later I walked in the cafeteria (we lived there in a camp) opened my heavy parka and showed him this tint little thing. He was so excited he took a dat off and drove south pass the arctic circle to Fairbanks to get his. They had rechargable things but we could go to the warehouse every morning and get free batteries for all day. That oil we're using wasted a lot of money coming out of the ground. The cassette that was in the package with my walkman Was Chris Cross and Delbert Mclinton not sure of the album title I like most of Delbert's stuff go see him if you can

I just love the Joe Cocker influence during live performances in some of these older rockers....
