     This 20-track release is a kind of Holy Grail for Marriott fans. Cut at his
     home studio with a bunch of friends (ôthe Scrubbersö), itÆs raw,
     heart-felt, and creative, showing all the potential that failed to surface
     on the post-Frampton Pie records. Ridley and competent blues pianist Tim
     Hinkley played a large part û RidleyÆs vocal on ôSend Me Some Lovingö is
     one of his best anywhere û but itÆs really a Marriott solo album. His
     authentic antiquarian interests surface repeatedly, with a hilarious music
     hall number (ôCaptain GoatcabinÆs Balancing Stallionsö), gentle stabs at
     acoustic country (ôBluegrass Intervalö), rockabilly (ôYouÆre A
     Heartbreakerö) and country-blues (ôHamboneö), some stripped-down R & B
     (CookeÆs ôShakeö; SpectorÆs ôBe My Babyö), and several over-the-top
     attempts to ape old time Delta and Chicago blues (a ground-shaking cover of
     ôMonaö). All of this nicely balances his usual, blustery hard rock, which
     is crafted and impassioned here (ôStreet Ratsö; drug odes like ôHigh And
     Happyö). Amazingly, A & M records refused to release the tapes; given to
     Hinkley, the surfaced only when he finally decided to cash in on them.
     Guitarist Clempson and singers Fields, King and Brown showed up, but
     drummer Shirley didnÆt and was replaced by Ian Wallace; guests include BJ
     Cole (pedal steel) and Lindsay Scott (fiddle û Joe Brown is credited, but
     Scott tells me otherwise), and WallaceÆs King Crimson compatriots Mel
     Collins (sax) and Boz Burrell (bass).
