Do you know if this is the same Tito's Leg that was recorded at Ronnie Scott's and broadcast on the BBC program 'Rock around the world' ?

Were both BBC Maida Vale sessions ever released ?

What happened to the first 'rejected' album ?

Did John Goodsall's Vertical Invader' demos ever surface ?

@marscape1

I'm not sure if this was recorded at Ronnie Scott's, the album that I have this recording from is the "Missing Period" album, which was recorded sometime between '75 - '76, so it could be, but I don't know.

As far as the Maida Vale sessions/rejected/Vertical Invaders albums, these are things that I've searched what feels like to the end of the internet for and still can't find recordings. All I can find is dates.

I think I can get the Maida Vale sessions, though. I'm working on it

To every Brand X fan, if there's any tune you'd like to hear, I will gladly post it, so just post a comment letting me know or send a message.

Cool number. IMO Unorthodox was their best album, side A is arguably one of the best sides of any jazz-rock-fusion release. The pics show a Morris Pert, is he related to Neil Pert of Rush?

[SpagsJippy]

I agree with you. This was an excellent album.

And, no, Morris Pert was not related to Neil Peart. See the two last names? Just a bit different. =]

thanks for your comment!

Those early Brand X albums were genius. Morrocon Roll was really inspired.

[SpagsJippy]

I agree. It was top quality stuff.

This track is from "Missing Period" released on the Outer Music Label in 1997 and currently out of print. I am fairly certain it is from the 2 week residency the band did at Ronnie Scott's in September 1976, tracks from which of course appear on the "Livestock" album. All the tracks from the BBC Maida Vale sessions recorded for John Peel's Top Gear show are what was released on "Missing Period".

This was the first song I ever listened to going from old cheapo headphones to my brand new hifi studiophones. blew my mind, how you can hear every little miniscule detail going on so clearly and lifelike, especially with the drumming, freaking amazing..

Wish there were bands like this now.

Some great funky strat in the middle of all that fusion! Something's not quite right with Collins' drumming though. Lenny White might have been better in this track. Just thinking.

their shitty record company broke them up. they were being forced to make commercial songs.

From what I have just read, it seems the only surviving tracks from the Vertical Invader session have been included on the X Files - A Twenty Year Retrospective. They are tracks 15 and 16.

I have one BBC session track in my uploads.
