  • Description

    Two classic Chip Taylor albums, recorded for Warner Bros. in 1973 and 1974.

    Chip Taylor straddles musical realms. A citified singer/songwriter raised on country music and blues who composed iconic pop hits such as 'Angel of the Morning' (Juice Newton / Merrilee Rush), 'Wild Thing' (The Troggs), and 'I Can't Let Go' (The Hollies).

    "Last Chance" was hailed as a country/rock masterpiece by Rolling Stone magazine and it was voted one of the best albums of 1973. The album was a forerunner to the outlaw cowboy movement.

    "Some Of Us", more mellow and with less critical observations, nevertheless continued to reflect on his upbringing with the title track perfectly showing off the singer/songwriter's talents as producer and arranger.

    Both albums received high critical acclaim at the time of their release and over the years have become much sought after collectors' items.

    "Some Of Us" appears for the first time on CD.
