@dretety I also heard this. King apparently became unreliable, not showing up for studio session etc. It is sad because he was just great with the band, especially his sax playing on Songs like Weaver's Answer and A Song for Me. With King there was no one to beat Family live. He read somewhere he is still around and living in Cheshire and still playing music.

Ah, I lived in Chelsea awhile, Notting Hill too, nowhere also. Seen the Family at the Rolling Stones in Hyde Park gig, excellent performance it was, so hurray for Roger Chapman.

@lifereguard nice comment, we were in the same world, as you say, fond memories. only a diferent part of the country. cheers.
-
Can someone PLEASE upload 'Riot on the Western Front'?!!!!!
-
Wish there were more videos of Jim King with Family. The only ones I've seen are this one and 'Me My Friend' from 68.

@retroperitoneal its on cd called vicous but fare 1977
-
I heard them, Roskilde 1972, great!
-
@evajom1 That was the one! Beautiful, clocked it from the first chord. Thanks for that. Yea what a time, Roundhouse, The Electric Cinema, Finches on Portobello when you needed to score, very fond memories.
-
@lifereguard I think you mean "How Hi the Li". its on "Family Entertainment"
"we only want to turn the whole world on" is the final line of the song.
I loved the Roundhouse.
-
Anyone recall 'We're going to turn the whole world on?'
can't find it. Pretty sure I heard them play it at the Roundhouse way back, but it was a very wrecked time so maybe I'm wrong.

Why did Chapman throw King out of the band? He was so integral to the great sound of the first two Family albums! Was there a personality conflict or did anything happen? Was Grech's departure to Blind Faith anything to do with it?

King had a lot of troubles with his mind, he was quite unwell and was asked to leave for the good of the band.

I heard the Family in this same year, at the Albert Hall. They were good. This may be the same concert.
