'L.A. Turnaround' review(s):
L.A. TurnaroundBy the time Bert joined Charisma around late 1973/early 1974, he had already recorded what he intended to be his next album: eight tracks featuring himself either solo or with Danny Thompson, recorded at a session in Paris in early ‘73. Reprise, his label at that time, rejected the tapes as did Charisma – the latter preferring a complete break with the Pentangle era. Nonetheless, two of the eight tracks – ‘Chambertin’ and ‘Lady Nothing’ – were rescued for the Charisma debut. A further Paris track, ‘Doctor Doctor’, later appeared on A Rare Conundrum. The other five titles and, indeed, their current whereabouts, are unknown but it may be conjectured that they were mostly or all songs re-recorded for L.A. Turnaround. source: Bert Jansch Official Website |
