Imagine McCartney recording with Clapton in the early 1970's
John Poffenbarger | Mukilteo, Washington United States | 01/26/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Instead of with Linda....



And with the songs serving as an outlet for severe personal and financial problems - As if McCartney needed to write a song like Layla...



That's how I've often thought of this CD. Great guitar work, and lots of big melodies. There's plenty of details in the other reviews, so I'll just add that Pete Ham is in his usual fine (musical) form here, and it's undoubtedly Joey Molland's finest hour. It took dire straits for the band, but Molland never sounded as inspired as he does here.



An odd thing I noticed after reading the Badfinger bio - In the closing verse to Dennis, a great Pete Ham song, the phrase "There's A Way Through" is repeated many times - reportedly the same phrase as Ham's final words to Tom Evans shortly before his death..."
