Greenslade/Switzerland 1974

A double keyboard band formed by ex-Colosseum’s Dave Greenslade, Tony Reeves (bass), ex-Crimson’s Andrew McCroach (drums), and ex-Samurai’s Dave Lawson (kbd, vo). From the Euro tour after the release of “Bedside Manners” in 1974, a complete recording of the January 18th Prairie performance in Switzerland from the high-quality audience master, which can be said to be A-rank at the time. First of all, this period is a valuable one as it is the last live period of the original first generation members, who released their second album, and then the bassist Tony Reeves left. And as expected, with Dave Greenslade’s keyboard at the center, he performed five songs from “Bedside Manners” and most of the album numbers, and the rest were selections from his previous two albums. Here, more than ever before, each individual’s individuality is demonstrated, with a variety of performances and a sound with British elegance. 01. An English Western/02. Sunkissed You’re Not/03.
