MEGA RARE SELF-TITLED ONLY ALBUM RELEASED BY "THE PEOPLE BAND" PRODUCED BY CHARLIE WATTS
1970 TRANSATLANTIC RECORDS STEREO TRA 214
Way back in the late sixties Charlie was rehearsing with Pete Brown's Battered Ornaments in Studio 51 in Covent Garden, when Lyn Dobson (Soft Machine) sidled up to him in a break and said: 'psssst! Do you wanna play some REAL music?' A few days later Charlie found himself in the back room of a house in Southgate where Mel Davis (ex-3rd Ear Band) and Terry Day were playing the most amazing music he had ever heard: fast, complex, lyrical, technically incredible, spiritually rich and seriously FREE! Really the London cousins of the likes of Ornette, Cecil Taylor, Sunny Murray, Pharaoh Saunders and Sun Ra, the People Band was the band that convinced Charlie that music is the only way.
Three of the People Band - Davey Payne, Charlie Hart and Terry Day - worked with Ian Dury in Kilburn & The Highroads and Davey Payne went on to be an outstanding member of the Blockheads, bringing free music to the world of Rock and Roll.
