(September 2022) Episode 436 is THE SPENCER DAVIS GROUP.  They’re best known as the launching pad for teen phenom Steve Winwood and a couple classic rock radio standards (Gimme Some Lovin’ and I’m a Man). But that’s about it. They traveled a familiar path for second-tier British Invasion acts – R&B, a psychedelic album and some early 70s boogie rock before fading.

Favourite album: With Their New Face On

Favourite song: Gimme Some Lovin’

Compared to expectations: same

Recommendation: just those two songs, although devoted connoisseurs of Brit psychedelia may want to check out With Their New Face On
