A concept album - about industry.

Released 1974.

Guitar: Gary Boyle.

Keyboards: the Parker brother

Plus others.

Musically reminds me (at some distance) of SAMLA MAMMAS MANNA  but without the RIO.  

Singer and lyrist: ?? He had a minor radio favourite in the UK in the 80's called The Pheasant Plucker, fronting a group of 'poets'.

Silver Faces by Doggerel Bank?

Do 'The Stanley' otherwise I'll thrash you with some rhubarb.

And thought I was being clever-assed difficult!!!

Yeap, this was sparked off after digging out my vinyl copy of Silver Faces last night to copy Cake Walk (which reminds me of some the dafter tunes on the only SMM album I have), on to a CD burn of favourite vinyl LP tracks - Gypsy's Dead & Gone (ex. Amercian Gypsy), one of those long gone and almost forget US prog bands from 1970, is there too - to be honest it possibly is the only proggy track on that double album????

Jim Parker recorded (before or after??) Sir John Betjamin (sp). And I was referring to William Bealby-Wright of The Barrow Poets, who vocalises here - anybody got a copy of the The Pheasant Pluckers Song - or the lyrics - because it's one of those tunes to sing after several pints????

Excellent.Another mission for yours truly I haven't seen either Doggerel album for well over 25 years.The last time that i saw/heard them was when I stupidly sold them @ 1978 to a shop near Blackheath called White Witch Records.Ah! We all learn by our witch stakes.
