“Stay with me” is good but the B side of the single is even better 
Debris.
Thanks for posting this, PS. I recall reading about this song a while ago in an article on Ronnie Lane in Classic Rock. First time I’ve heard it.
The Cream of Eric Clapton, Deep Purple in Rock, ‘Argus’ by Wishbone Ash.
excellent stuff.
I’ve not been on here much over the past couple of days so this thread has moved on a bit. Glad to see ‘Can’t stand the heat’ by Quo. Btw, ‘Accident Prone’ was also my favourite track.
All great albums, Basser and those acts feature quite often in the list. The Cream of Eric Clapton itself doesn’t
Though as it’s a compilation. 
I looked up Accident Prone as a single and for the Quo it was a pretty abysmal chart placing at No.38. Big shame as I think it’s a terrific song. But then, charts don’t determine a great song. People already had the album by then maybe.
Ready for a few more?
No.890: “To The Bone” by Steven Wilson (2017)
You may not be familiar with the name Steven Wilson, but you will have probably heard his production on many albums by big name acts such as Marillion, Dream Theater, Muse and many more. The former lead singer/guitarist/keyboardist/producer of both Porcupine Tree and Pineapple Thief progressive rock bands, he has seen a series of solo albums progress with ascending popularity over the past 15 years or so. This is a rather uncharacteristic ‘pop’ moment from his latest release:
No.889: “Employment” by Kaiser Chiefs (2005)
One of the most successful recent-ish “indie-rock” bands, Kaiser Chiefs hit the big time with this debut album.
No.888: “Don’t Believe The Truth” by Oasis (2005)
Another album in a row from 2005 and this time it’s from the undisputed kings of modern indie, the Gallagher brothers. Ignoring their swagger and their surly attitude, you can’t deny that Oasis brought out some great singles and albums in their 15 years as a functioning band (however much Noel might have cleverly nicked from his favourite bands!). ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’ includes three singles, this one is my choice to play here:
I’ll leave you with this one today, and following the bit of a mess-up with my ‘Odessa’ featurette, hopefully this will make amends…
No.887: “Trafalgar” by The Bee Gees (1971)
Again, these early albums from The Bee Gees are severely underrated and perhaps even unheard by the fans of Saturday Night Fever generation, but aren’t they absolutely fantastic? A treat for you - the whole album in full:
Ronnie wrote some lovely little tunes.
Trafalgar is a great choice; I particularly like the eponymous track and Israel but there are a number of good tracks on this album
I’ve got to get both those albums (Odessa, the other), plus all the Bee Gees early stuff again in a box set or something. I’ve only got them on old CDs, tapes and some I’ve never had at all. I’ll have to have a little scroll on eBay and Amazon at work tonight to see what’s the most cost effective way of purchasing them is.
Some more albums for you today coming up, ladies and gents…
No.996: “Keep The Village Alive” by Stereophonics (2015)
Wales’ best band (though manic Street preachers might argue with that), the Stereophonics constantly release brilliant records every couple of years and this is no exception. This band is No.1 on my list of acts I MUST see live.
No.885: “Scott 2” by Scott Walker (1968)
http://images.45worlds.com/s/cd/scott-walker-scott-2-4-cd-s.jpg
The incredibly talented Scott Walker is essentially a one-off; an srtist who is in a class and genre of his own. His 1960’s work is unique enough, but the avant-garde abstract work he would bring us in later years is simply awesome. Here’s the brilliant ‘Jackie’:
Saw this as I was fishing out images. I would love this box set of his early works:
No.884: “Blues Helping” by Love Sculpture (1968)
Before Dave Edmunds hit the (semi) big-time with a succession of excellent solo releases, plus with the band Rockpile, he would show us his vocal and guitar work with this band. The video I have selected is one assembled later on and it’s pleasant to remind of of what summertime is like:
No.883: “The Pious Bird Of Good Omen” by Fleetwood Mac (1969)
I’m very strict with my policy of not allowing compilations to enter my list, but I feel this album warrants an exception to the rule. It’s a selection of The Mac’s early tracks, most of which did not feature on albums, hence the inclusion. Here’s one of their best known ballads:
Only the Original Mac for me, once they let in the yanks it was wallpaper music.
I’ve always been in two minds about that. I like both versions, but I do believe they should have renamed themselves when Buckingham & Nicks turned up though.
Dave Edmunds praised by Chuck Berry.You can’t get better than that.
My only claim to fame is that I held the gold record he was awarded for “I hear you knocking”
His father used to carry it around in the car to show it off.
