He must have cringed
[QUOTE=BklynBlue;977717 What might have been going through Kirwan's mind when the idea was first broached? Here they were trying to move forward, and now they were looking backward again...[/QUOTE]
True. Whether during the period immediately after Peter left we wanted to or felt incapable of performing his songs wasn't an issue or even discussed, all we knew was that we wanted to move forward, and Danny and I had never based recording or performing our material according to public taste when we had little to lose playing to sparse crowds.
That's why Peter, Danny and I played blues in the first place at a time when it was far from standard popular fare. It just so happened that it became popular through proponents like John Mayall, God bless him!
The only prob for me was that, as usual in those days, I was up a creek without a paddle for new ideas.
