  • Description

    The line-up of the band was completed with the addition of guitarist Andy Gee, drummer Dave Lutton (formerly with Heavy Jelly and The Grease Band) and bass player Jim Leverton (formerly with Fat Mattress and Juicy Lucy).

    Championed by former Jimi Hendrix Experience drummer Mitch Mitchell, the band secured a contract with Epic Records in 1972 and recorded their debut album the same year, produced by well-known admirer, Roger Daltery.

    Their follow up album Why Not? was produced by Mike Vernon and saw Nick South replace Jim Leverton, but Ellis continued the fine musical direction established on their first record.



    This Esoteric Recordings edition has been remastered from the original Epic master tapes and features a booklet that restores the original album artwork and includes a new essay.
