Youlden's unique blues vocals contributed hugely to Savoy Brown's most successful albums and international recognition but, he has rarely performed again after leaving them over 40 years ago. Luckily, these eighteen superb previously unreleased analogue studio recordings with friends have survived to illustrate his greatness. They clearly had enough of a grape-like bloom at the time to merit being picked and preserved for later enjoyment. Savour the vintage.

In 2011, the late, great guitarist Martin Stone contacted Chris Youlden and other members of his old blues band wanting to assemble a group for the 40th Glastonbury Festival. Having performed with Mighty Baby at the very first Glastonbury Fayre, Martin had been invited to provide the opening act of the anniversary. So, The Old Tossers gathered for the last time and duly took to the "Spirit of '71" stage on Thursday 23rd June 2011. During the course of the reunion, memories were revived about a couple of "lost" Chris Youlden recording sessions with the band (without Stone) from 1987 and 1991. The tapes had been preserved in excellent condition and upon listening were deemed eminently worthy of release.
