Chris Farlowe recorded my song “Looking For Love In A Stranger” around 1980/81. I’ve always assumed it to be an unreleased track. Unreleased my arse !!! – Whilst doing some research and prep for our show The Georgian Theatre, Stockton on March 25th and I discovered it’s not on one album, not on two but three albums (that I’ve found so far). And just when you think the name dropping has gone as far as it can go check this: It’s me playing the guitar on that track. The other musos were Simon Phillips drums and Mo Foster on bass. Now check the date – yep I was playing guitar with the Jeff Beck Band (minus Jeff or course) Meanwhile here’s a little clip. You can hear us perform it at the Georgian on the 25th (some tickets left https://goo.gl/iWU9LH ) Terry Slesser sings it in the show.
