HOOKFOOT (Self-Titled) - A&M SP 4316 (1971)
TRACKS LISTING: Bluebird Mystic Lady Movies Nature Changes Wim-Wom Don't Let It Bring You Down Coombe Gallows Crazy Fool Golden Eagle
Hookfoot was Elton John’s backing band from his early years. This debut LP includes songs by Steve Stills (“Bluebird”) and Neil Young (“Don’t Let It Bring You Down”), plus seven originals, mostly by Caleb Quaye. They get a decent groove going on several tracks, such as “Mystic Lady” and “Nature Changes”, but the songs themselves are pretty pedestrian for the most part. Side B gets a bit eclectic, with the jazzy instrumental “Wim-Wom” and the Caravan-style prog-rock section at the end of “Golden Eagle".
