The Alan Price Set The House That Jack Built Complete 60’s Sessions
When keyboard player Alan Price sensationally walked out on the chart topping Animals in 1965, at the very peak of their popularity, most pundits immediately wrote him off. Yet not only did Price go on to establish himself as a front man in his own right, he later went on to forge a hugely successful solo career, comprehensively eclipsing his erstwhile colleagues. The Alan Price Set cut a steady stream of hit singles for Decca in the 1960s and were a truly versatile outfit, tackling R & R, soul, contemporaneous rock and even old music hall standards with absolute impunity.
The unique 2-CD set draws together everything that The Alan Price Set recorded for Decca during the 1960’s. All of their A and B sides feature alongside their two rare LPS, The Price To Play and A Price On His Head – the former a collection of R & B covers, the latter drawing heavily on contemporary singer-songwriters. The album also includes 10 previously unreleased live sides recorded for various BBC sessions.
Out now and available from all good record shops. Review coming soon...
