Randall's Island (Elliott Randall Related)


Randall's Island - Rock and Roll City - 1972 - Polydor

For most of his life, Elliott Randall has been involved in record production, composition, electronic research and development, lectures and teaching, and performing and recording with artists including Steely Dan, The Doobie Brothers, Carly Simon, Seatrain, The Blues Brothers, Carl Wilson, Peter Wolf, Peter Frampton, Richie Havens, and many others. Other credits include working as music consultant for NBC Saturday Night Live and Oliver Stone, and projects with producers like Jerry Wexler, David Kershenbaum, Steve Lillywhite, Eddie Kramer and Gary Katz. His guitar solos on Steely Dan's "Reelin' In The Years" and the movie, "Fame" are now regarded as some of the greatest guitar solos ever recorded. In the '70's Randall's Island toured with John Mayall among others, and played music for the Broadway production of Jesus Christ Superstar. 'Prediscovery' is a good track and the album contains a lot of decent blues rock throughout. Some tracks are reminiscent of PG&E. However there is a lot of dated extraneous post psychedelic "jabberwocky" on the album. It doesn't spoil the musicianship, and this pseudo-psychedelic nonsense was typical of many albums of this period. Pink Floyd used this kind of stuff to better effect on DSOTM.The band includes bassist Gary King, Ten Wheel Drive's drummer Allen Herman, saxophonist Paul Fleisher and Pot (Phillip Namanworth) on piano and organ.
