REVIEW:

This release from Midvalley seems to have come out in 2021, the back cover claims so as well as the label number (991) since the latest Midvalley release (Tribute to Jeff Beck) has no.1082. It seems, however, that it didn’t get much attention though and only now it is out in the original paper sleeve as well as in a new Jewel box edition. It does feature very interesting stuff for Beatles, Clapton and Stones collectors, since it has a copy of two rare acetates said to have been in the possession of the late Ginger Baker. The disc starts with the cd title song, that comes from October 1969 sessions at Trident Studios in London, known as the Asashish Khan sessions because involved the aforementioned on vocals and sarod, Eric Clapton and George Harrison on guitar, Billy Preston on keyboards, Ringo Starr on drums and John Barham on piano. These tracks were produced by George Harrison.

Next come the acetate songs, the first is a mistitled jam from a 10” acetate coming from the sessions for That’s The Way God Planned It lasting 11 minutes and including George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Ginger Baker and Richie Havens; this is a longer version of an instrumental track called I Remember Jeep. The next song comes from a one sided 45 rpm Apple acetate of a track that was recorded for the same album, but this version is longer and features no backing vocals contrary to the released version; personnel is the same as above. It is funny to note that a few months after the Rock’n’Roll Circus Keith Richards and Eric Clapton were again involved in another supergroup but this time not with John Lennon but with another Beatle George Harrison and Ginger Baker on drums instead of Mitch Mitchell. All the remaining tracks come from Jackie Lomax Is This What You Want? album in the original mono version which came out on Apple records and featured George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Nicky Hopkins, Klaus Voormann and John Barham.
