Colin Scot (1971)

Colin 'Scotty' Thistlethwaite is fairly obscure I imagine

but he must have been well liked and well connected.

The list of contributors to this, his debut, album is amazing:

Backing Vocals – Alan Hull, Ann Steuart, Jane Relf, Jon Anderson,

Linda Hoyle, Peter Gabriel, Peter Hammill, Phil Collins, Steve Gould

Bass – Nic Potter, Rod Clements

Drums – Guy Evans, Billy Rankin

Guitar – Brinsley Schwarz , Davey Johnstone, Robert Fripp

Keyboards – Bob Andrews, David Kaffinetti, Rick Wakeman

Saxophone – David Jackson

Producer – John Anthony

Artwork – Paul Whitehead

This is an mp3 copy of the CD release.

Don't get too excited, it's not exactly Crimson/Genesis/VDGG/Yes etc.

but it's not bad, song based, folky stuff and he has a decent voice.

Good fun trying to spot people...Fripp on Here We Are in Progress I reckon.

Colin was signed to United Artists

so it's puzzling why there would be such a large Charisma Records contingent.

Apparently Scotty was also known for his considerable alcohol consumption.
