It's been posted before, I'm sure, but this is a nice little Albion Band documentary from 1979:

Seen it before but many thanks for the reminder... Smiley


Yes, I assumed it would be well known in these parts but it's nice to see Ashley as a real force of nature, in his prime.  Smiley

David Clayton Thomas, the voice of Blood, Sweat and Tears, has died at 84.

He dropped in and out of BS&T for years, but I never got to see him. I think Mrs. J From A probably saw them circa 1969-1970. I'll ask her. He had a rich and soulful baritone voice, and he composed their biggest hit, "Spinning Wheel." R.I.P. to a great talent.

Sending best wishes to Ashley and his family. The Mrs. and I had several very pleasant interactions with him at and around Cropredy in 2007 and 2017, and found him absolutely charming. He even joined our group for lunch one time, and was quite the raconteur. He sold me a leftover Albion Band shirt for "name your price" (I think I decided on 15 or 20 pounds, whatever I had in my pocket). Fond memories and warm feelings abound.

Sad news. Here's hoping that his recovery & rehabilitation go well.

Oh no...poor Ashley...that's awful news. I met him and had a chat at Cropredy back around 2005 and he is a lovely guy. Sending love and wishing him a speedy recovery.
