The man who had wowed America, challenged Elvis, launched Rock n Roll in Britain and France and inspired a generation, was seen in his native land as a bit of a has-been. His audience was the French arty intelligentsia and UK Teds but there were still those who believed in Gene, one was Kama Sutra, the New York label who brought us The Lovin' Spoonful and Gene fanatics The Flamin' Groovies (and obliquely The Shangri-Las too, but that's another story...) In 1969 and 1970 they put Gene in their newly acquired LA studio with the cream of young session men to produce an album. Taking a cue from The Band, Bob Dylan, The Sir Douglas Quintet, and possibly fellow not as old as you might think rocker Dale Hawkins (who had just had an amazing album out himself!) Gene rose to the occasion bigtime! Possibly one of the most unexpected and astonishing albums of roots rock and Americana is what we have here with Gene as on good form as ever!
