Pilot - S/T (1972 RCA)



I picked this album as curiosity and for the background of some members of the band. I knew Leigh Stephens at least as a member of Blue Cheer and of his two solo albums Red Weather and Cast of a Thousand. Drummer Mick Weller has played with many big names - if it means anything. One can play with big ones but can he also make something on his own, that isn't any brained. Mick has made music for Rod Stewart's Maggie May. Isn't that something. All tracks are by Bruce Leigh. Brother of Stephen's? Pilot is a good band It's music is both boogie (which kind of music i usually avoid) and more progressive, a sort of extended boogie style. The other side of the album is all over four minutes lasting tracks and that is usually a good clue for myself picking a record without further knowledge of it and in this case everything went ok.
