Is This What You Want?
IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT? (1968) by Jackie Lomax
Yes! This is a cracking album of powerful late-Sixties rock and blue-eyed soul originals by Liverpool vocalist Jackie Lomax. Among the many highlights is the one cover, George Harrison's otherwise unavailable 'White Album'-era song 'Sour Milk Sea', given to Jackie and featuring guest players including George, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Keith Richards and Eric Clapton.
This Remastered CD includes six Bonus Tracks, three of which are previously unreleased:
• ‘New Day’ / Jackie’s second single for Apple, from 1969
• ‘Thumbin’ A Ride’ / cover of the Coasters song, produced by Paul McCartney and the B-side to ‘How The Web Was Woven’ in 1970
• ‘How The Web Was Woven’ / Jackie’s last single for Apple, produced by George Harrison
• ‘You’ve Got To Be Strong’ / previously unreleased by Jackie Lomax; also covered by Doris Troy on her Apple album
• ‘You Make It With Me’ / previously unreleased; one of the last tracks Jackie recorded for Apple
• ‘Can You Hear Me’ / previously unreleased; one of the last tracks Jackie recorded for Apple in the summer of 1969
