Description
Following expanded reissues from the resurrected Purple Records by Glenn Hughes, Silverhead, Elf and Hard Stuff, Cherry Red are proud to announce the new four disc set, “Purple People Volume One”. •Between finding fame performing as Mary Magdalene in Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Jesus Christ Superstar” alongside Ian Gillan’s Jesus, but before being snapped up by RSO Records to become a disco superstar with the “Saturday Night Fever” soundtrack, Yvonne Elliman made one LP for Purple Records which was produced by Rupert Hine. •Purple Records was nothing if it wasn’t a broad church, and Buddy Bohn’s “A Drop In The Ocean” is typical of the label’s eclectic nature. The Illinois born guitarist’s third LP was produced by Jerry Lordan, and also features cover artwork form the famed Hipgnosis design team. •Carol Hunter was born and brought up in New York, and after leaving school and performing around Greenwich Village coffee houses with Peter Tork, she taught guitar for a year, made an album with Janis Ian, did session work in New York, including playing with Jimi Hendrix. Produced by Carol Hunter and Randy Steirling, “The Next Voice You Hear” also includes a guest appearance from Larry Carlton. •As if to prove how open-minded the Purple Records roster could be, “COLDITZ BREAKPOINT!” was released in 1973 and appears on CD for the first time.
