Roger Daltrey, a fan of blues and R&B music, wanted to sing James Brown’s “Please, Please, Please” and “I Don’t Mind”. Both tracks were recorded between April 12-13 in 1965, and made their way onto The Who’s My Generation LP. #thewho #music #uk #rockhistory

Pentangle’s version of “Once I Had a Sweetheart” was recorded in April of 1969 at IBC Studios for the group’s “Basket of Light” album. The track was also released as a single in May of 1969. #60s #history #london #UK #music #pentangle Image: Pentangle sweetheart label

“Travellin’ Song” was Pentangle’s debut single from 1968, and was never included on a full album. It was the only track that Shel added strings to. #britishinvasion #60s #folk

Shel recorded a version of Ike & Tina Turner’s “River Deep, Mountain High” with The Easybeats for their first album following “Friday On My Mind”. Recorded in February of 1967 at IBC studios, the track was a perfect choice to accompany the originals penned by Vanda and Young

Originally penned by Bobby “Blue” Bland, “I Pity the Fool” was recorded by David Bowie in January of 1965. Shel produced the track with the inimitable Jimmy Page on lead guitar - incredible session! #bowie #ledzeppelin #music #rockhistory #rocknroll #davidbowie #60s

Ray Davies penned “So Tired of Waiting for You” while still in art school, and featured a decidedly slower pace than some of the group’s other singles. The song has gone on to be recorded by Nancy Sinatra, Green Day, and countless others. #thekinks #kinks #britishinvasion

The Creation’s “Ostrich Man” was written by the great Eddie Phillips, and he also sang lead, and played both lead and rhythm guitar! Though it was recorded in 1967, the track didn’t see the light of day until 1982, on a retrospective compilation of the band’s tracks.

Shel produced an album for the band Foresight in late 1973 and, while some test pressings were produced, the project was later stalled. #70s #music #rockhistory
