Great site for Peter bardens bands.
It just shows how much work the got just in the five months that Peter was with them. There are over 90 dates, with much more than I thought playing with Rod Stewart. As I seem to recall. Peter was not too fond of Rod Stewarts work ethic. I guess he had ample time to judge from the looks of the tour dates.

AYNSLEY DUNBAR RETALIATION - MID 1967

according to Mike Vernon, that band also called Crazy Blue, recorded one more take of
"Stone Crazy" and another track, "Fly Right Baby" on which Jack Bruce also played piano....

45 years later..... Legal reasons still count?? Ridiculous

A murdercase doesn't even retire that long.

Yes, some labels simply wanted to just reissue the released version of Stone Crazy and Rod threatened to sue if they did so they backed off, don't know what his problem is.

Great list, dino!

Of course, there are the Katmandu sessions, but those are often considered as a "Peter Green & Katmandu" album since Peter's contribution is throughout the entire album.

Ray Dorset has several outtakes in his archives. Some tracklists were posted on the Ray Dorset/Mungo Jerry website a couple of years ago. He planned to release a CD of outtakes, but again things got stopped for legal reasons.

most likely it was a lacklustre performance.
the version that was released was not a stellar job either. rod probably has enough bad takes out there on records he released himself

Exactly why I don't get what the difference is if this one came out as well anyways.

There's no accounting for taste, but I consider Stone Crazy among the best of Rod's recordings. I mean, anything he's done after 1973 is mostly crap.

Yes Dansven, I agree that Katmandu feels like a collaboration more than a guest spot.
It was like Kolors 2 or something.
