The Snake

Digitally remastered reissue of the master guitarist's 1974 live solo album was done by Jon Astley (The Who). Featured players on these sessions included bassist Alan Spenner and guitarist Neil Hubbard, both of whom were in Joe Cocker's Grease Band and would later join Kokomo just after these sessions and eventually ended up in Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry's solo groups a few years later. Mel Collins followed close to the same path (sans the Roxy Music gig), having just left King Crimson and later would play on countless efforts from bands like Bad Company, a tenure in Camel, Clannad, Dire Straits, Alan Parsons Project, the Rolling Stones and many more.
