Malcolm Tomlinson (b. London UK 16 June 1946 – d. Toronto 2 April 2016)
Malcom was a neighbour of mine for many years, until he passed
away in 2016. He started out in the early 1960s playing drums in London in
a band called ‘The Panthers’. In January 1963, he joined Jeff Curtis &
The Flames. The group recorded a five-track acetate with legendary producer
Joe Meek before Tomlinson left (in mid-1964) to join ‘The Del Mar Trio’.
In February 1965, the group recorded 4 tracks for EMI at Abbey Road. Two
months later, they changed their name to ‘James Deane & The London Cats’.
In June 1966, Tomlinson joined forces with two members of ‘The Noblemen’
which changed its name to ‘The Motivation’.
By the end of the 60s Tomlinson moved to Toronto with his former colleague
from ‘Jeff Curtis & The Flames’, guitarist Louis McKelvey. They formed
the group called ‘Milkwood’ which performed at the legendary ‘Toronto Rock
and Roll Revival’ at Varsity Stadium on 13 September 1969. The band also
recorded an unreleased LP for Polydor Records. The pair also appeared on
another unreleased LP, this time by Toronto singer Jay Telfer. McKelvey and
Tomlinson then formed another new band based out of Toronto, Damage, but
this was short-lived. Tomlinson played in a succession of local bands, including
Syrinx, and a latter day version of Rhinoceros.

Rick & The Romans, who had been playing on the Newfoundland music scene
for some time, decided that it was time to make a record. The problem was
that they were low on financial resources. So what they did was pack up their
van and head to Ontario where they found jobs picking tobacco, eventually
arriving at Arc Records Studio where they realized they only had enough money
for two hours of recording time. They only managed to get these two songs
down on tape before time ran out.

band that were the envy of all. This album was promoted by ex-Toronto mayor

This band consisted of family and friends from Perth County,

from fiddle tunes to Cajun music, kids songs and blues. I think there’s even
a drum solo on one of the albums. They signed with MCA for their next album
release in 1974, produced by Gary Buck, but it failed to chart so they broke
up the band.

Stéphane Greppelli b. 26 January 1908 Paris FR / 1 December 1997 (89) Paris
Greppelli is best known as a founder for the ‘Quintette du Hot
Club de France’ with guitarist Django Reinhardt in 1934. It was one of the
first all-string jazz bands. He has been called "the grandfather of jazz
violinists". Grappelli recorded a solo for the title track of Pink Floyd's
1975 album Wish You Were Here. This was originally made nearly inaudible
in the mix, and so he was not credited on the album which, according to Roger
Waters, would have been "a bit of an insult". However, a remastered version
with Grappelli's contribution sounding fully audible can be found on the
2011 remix of ‘Wish You Were Here.’
Jean-Luc Ponty b. 29 September 1942, Avranches, France
In 1969 Frank Zappa composed the music for Ponty's solo album
King Kong: Jean-Luc Ponty Plays the Music of Frank Zappa (World Pacific,
1970). In 1972 Elton John invited Ponty to contribute to his Honky Chateau
(1972) album. At the urging of Zappa and The Mothers of Invention who wanted
him to join their tour, Ponty emigrated with his wife and two young daughters
to the United States and made his home in Los Angeles. He continued to work
on a variety of projects – including two of John McLaughlin's Mahavishnu
Orchestra albums.

Recorded by Bob Lanois at Grant Avenue Studio, Hamilton
This song has been recorded by various Irish artists who believed
that this was some sort of traditional folksong. However, it was written
and recorded by Glen Reid out of Burk’s Falls, Ontario. He started playing
in Toronto when he was only 17 in a band called Brannigan’s Boys which made
one album for the Dominion Records label in 1970. That was when he wrote
My Green Valleys! As a multi-instrumentalist, Reid became a session player
for Dominion and later for Boot Records. His association with producer /
musician Fred McKenna lead him to the set of CBC TVs Singalong Jubilee, which
Reid appeared on for a couple of seasons. He was also a sideman for the John
Allan Cameron Show, Harry Hibbs Show and The George Hamilton IV Show.
It’s been recorded by The Wolftones, Tommy Makem, The Irish Rovers and about
30 other artists.

In late 1968, Corbetta and Webber formed the band Chocolate Hair. The
original single release was a 5:58 version with no edits but an early fadeout,
almost immediately after the last verse. This was later trimmed down to 2:58
(for radio airplay only) in which the entire organ and guitar solos are edited
out. When "Green-Eyed Lady" started climbing the charts, the single was reworked
one last time to include a shortened piece of the organ/guitar break; this
became the common 3:33 version used by radio stations today.

Mastered by Peter Letros at Wreckhouse Mastering and Paul Gold at Salt Mastering
Violinist Chris McKhool was putting out some pretty interesting
solo albums in the early 2000s when he met up with flamenco jazz guitarist
Kevin Laliberté and that’s when everything began to click. Fusing
their wild sounds with world music, they formed the basis of the Sultans
of String. Since then they’ve released several well received albums that
have generated a lot of interest. What a treat to finally hear them on vinyl!!
It’s a totally different experience. Ten Years of Music is a compilation
album of earlier works but it sure works to my liking.

decades apart. This song was recorded specifically for the CBC radio program
‘Touch The Earth’ hosted by Sylvia Tyson. It’s the last song on side 4 of
this double compilation album.
EXTRA EXTRA Just got an amail from Bill Garrett with the inside scoop on this:
Hi Steve,
For the record (so to speak)
Small correction here re. The Best of Touch The Earth album.
Paul Mills produced Sides 1,2 and 3 and I produced the all the tracks on Side 4.
This version of “Cool Green River” showed up later on Wiffen’s “Songs From The Lost and Found” on True North.
The session was recorded at Toronto’s CBC Studio 4S
Engineer - Larry Morey
Producer - Bill Garrett
Players were:
Mike Francis - Guitar
Pat Godfrey - Piano

Also for the record, I love the way you provide the history of the tracks you play.
All the best,
Bill
