Was teasing you a little, I guess. Long John Baldry's Conditional Discharge is actually an intro to Don't try To Lay No Boogie Woogie On The King of Rock And Roll. One of the great all time rock and roll records...and virtually unknown to the classic rock listening masses...very sad.
There's a 5 cut EP from Rhino that has Conditional Discharge, Don't Try To Lay No Boogie and It Ain't Easy on it...you can download it from Amazon.

I had only heard his name before today. And I don't even consider myself part of the masses. The tune is indeed a banger, as the kids say.
I had no idea who Kevin Ayers was until a few weeks ago and now I can't stop listening to him...that's why we're all here, I guess. Thanks for dropping by.
And, BTW, I have avoided anything attached to Bob Seger since I did AOR radio in the 1980's, for fear I may hear Turm The Page again.
Then, when I started playing in a band again, I cracked open a copy of Smokin' O.P.s. Smokin', indeed. Great versions of Bo Diddley, Love The One You're With and Let It Rock.
Then the guitarist I play with suggested we do Jewel Eyed Judy by (the original, pre-Buckingham Nicks) Fleetwood Mac.
I'd inherited a half-dozen 1960's FMac records from a radio station that went under and had never listened to them ever (even though they've been on my record shelf since 1983). Kiln House is a great record.
And now I'm listening to this canned alternative station -- 'cuz I'm sick of Adult Alternative radio and their obsession with navel gazing girl folkies -- and I'm catching up on stuff like Smashing Pumpkins and the like, stuff that I frankly ignored the first time around.
Oh, and Paul Butterfield which, of course, I knew about but never really had dug too deep into...and have you heard of J.B. Hutto (the slide guitar player) or Walter Trout (anothe blues player)? It just goes on and on.
thanks for posting the rest I always considered both parts one song. If your interested in Butterfield you should check out thier guitarist Mike Bloomfield, one of my favorites
Love Bloomfield. Wht was that song he did? stop! ?
the first song is Born in Chicago from Butterfields fist album and I think the finish with driftin blues
The Long John Baldry cuts were played fairly often on the original KSAN. Another guy from that era is Charlie Musselwhite, great blues harp. The original Fleetwood Mac had a lot going on, and even during their great commercial success, the rhythm section of McVie and Fleetwood is a monster, up there with Wyman-Watts, Sly & Robbie, and Moon-Entwhistle.
I remember this. Some housemate owned the LP and it got lots of spins at the time. Jeez, I haven't heard it in..what, 35 years? Great.
