British Invasion All Stars

2007 album that features covers of well-known songs by the Yardbirds (Shapes of Things) and The Spencer Davis Group (Gimme Some Lovin') to new material. The CD boasts several guest musicians who also have strong '60s credentials, including the late Noel Redding (who was one-third of the Jimi Hendrix Experience) and two members of the Pretty Things: Dick Taylor and Phil May. For lovers of high energy rock played with attitude and verve as would be expected by the calibre of musicians involved The British Invasion All Stars invoke a period that has been taken by the scruff of the neck and dragged into the 21st century.
