Sounds Incorporated formed in early 1961. Sounds Incorporated won the opportunity to back Gene Vincent on his British tour and on recordings in London. This led to further opp-ortunities to back other visiting American artists, including Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Brenda Lee and Sam Cooke. While performing in Hamburg in Germany, they met and be-friended the Beatles and in 1963 signed to Brian Epstein's management company, NEMS. The band's first two singles on new label Columbia, "The Spartans" and "Spanish Harlem", made the UK Singles Chart in 1964, were the only successes hat Sounds Incorporated enjoyed in their home country. That same year they became Cilla Black's backing band, and released their first album called Sounds Incorporated.
The group toured the world as the Beatles' opening act in 1965. The Beatles invited Cameron, Holmes and West to be the saxophone section on their track "Good Morning Good Morning", from the album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Produced by Doug Lennox and Paul Mills, 1981
Mosely Stephen Scarlett
b. November 30, 1946 Montreal / d. Toronto May 30, 2019
This was from a compilation album released by the CBC featuring live in-studio performances on Sylvia Tyson’s national folk radio program Touch The Earth (1974-1980). I believe that this performance by Mose was recorded around 1978, which would probably make it one of his earliest recordings to make it to the platter. In 1979, Mose recorded two songs live at the Nervous Breakdown folk club that were included on a compilation album of the same name. He was backed on those tracks by Mendelson Joe.
Mose’s first album was the Bruce Cockburn produced Stalling For Time recorded in 1981. The executive producer of that album was Tim Harrison, founder of Summerfolk festival in Owen Sound.

After the Spencer Davis Group broke up, Davis moved to California and recorded an acoustic album, ‘It's Been So Long’, in 1971. He followed it with another solo album called ‘Mousetrap’, produced by Sneaky Pete Kleinow of The Flying Burrito Brothers. Neither album sold very well. Soon after, he moved back to the UK, formed a new Spencer Davis Group which only lasted about a year. He then took a job with Island Records in the mid-1970s. As Island’s promoter, Davis got to work with Bob Marley, Robert Palmer and Eddie and the Hot Rods as well as promoting the blossoming solo career of Steve Winwood.

Snow resolved not to institutionalize Valerie, and cared for her at home until Valerie died on March 19, 2007, at the age of 31. Snow's efforts to care for Valerie basically ended her career
Phoebe Snow suffered a cerebral hemorrhage on January 19, 2010, and slipped into a coma and died nearly a year and a half later.

On cover it states that “Home Taping Sucks. Please Be Cool.” That was the great fear in the music industry in the 1980s: criminals with fingers on the record button of their tape recorders, dubbing their records to listen on their Walkman’s or in their cars which was completely illegal. So the industry went on the offensive and offended an entire generation of music lovers who soon discovered Napster’s free mp3s.

He introduces the band. Schofield’s normal band was called The Canadians. On his first album for Quality Records, he’s listed as Pete Schofield but on the spine he’s called Don.

The Who’s A Quick One (also titled Happy Jack) from 1966
A Quick One, The Who’s second album, features significant songwriting contributions from all band members, with lead vocalist Roger Daltrey contributing one song, and bassist John Entwistle and drummer Keith Moon each contributing two. Pete Townsend wrote 5. The album also included a cover of the Holland–Dozier–Holland song "Heat Wave" (which wasn’t included on the American release). The album ends with a musical suite titled "A Quick One, While He's Away", which served as an inspiration for later rock operas that Townsend and the Who would become known for. Other than Pete Townsend, only John Entwistle went on to compose Who songs. Note: although he isn't credited, I do believe that Nicky Hopkins (who played My Generation LP) plays piano on a few cuts.

Damron started his career performing in both rock and country bands. His recording career began in 1957 with his original '45 Gonna Have A Party/ Rockin' Baby. In the 60s he played only country and like so many talented Canadian country stars, he could only go so far. It wasn’t until the late 1970s that things started paying off for Damron when his song “Susan Flowers” hit big on the country music charts. He was like one of the Outlaws; Canada’s Waylon Jennings. Susan Flowers was awarded Best Song of the year at the Big Country Awards.

I used to perform this song with the first of two bands that I found myself in with Geddy Lee. Guitarist Stan Bornstein introduced us to the music of WCPAEB with this song, back in 1967. The album also had a Frank Zappa song called “Help, I’m A Rock”. Part one was actually the band’s second album. The two that came after it were not nearly as enjoyable to listen to.
