The thing is Albatross didn't go down terribly weel with live audiences.I was at an open air gig at Parliament Hill fields and they began this number,cue band being pelted by beer cans from a rock/blues hungry crowd.Band walks offstage never to reappear.
First got to see Rod in The Shotgun Express at the Greayhound Catford 1966. Later on in the Jeff Beck band at places like the Bromley Court Hotel and The Black Prince Bexley.What a great blues voice he had.They used to show up at gigs(late as usual) in short fur coats taking the piss out of the one Eric Clapton always wore with Cream.Sometimes he would invite members of the audience front rows to come up on stage to sing "Hi Ho Silver lining. Great early career but for me iit got too poppy and interest tailed off somewhat This was good though....
