So one day in 1981 I picked up an album by someone named Jack Green, titled Reverse Logic. It's pure power pop, with a bit of a rock edge.

What I found interesting was the company this guy kept on the album.

Drums - Simon Fox (BeBop Deluxe)

Guitar (on several tracks) - Andy Dalby (Arthur Brown's Kingdom Come)

Sax (on several tracks) - Mel Collins (KC)

Not surprisingly, the best tracks on the album are those with Dalby and Collins in tow.

There was apparently an earlier album, which I do not have.

AMG is mum on the Jack Green, pretty much.

As mentioned, it's mostly power pop but it's always interesting to hear musicians (in the case of Dalby and Collins) in an alien setting.

Anyone else heard this?

Funny I picked up his Humanesque album a couple months ago because it was cheap, and it looked like some good Rundgren-like power pop. When I look at the player credits who was on lead guitar for one track? Mr. Ritchie Blackmoore! So I got it, but haven't listened to it yet.
