  1. David Elliott has been busy writing and recording for many years with a variety of artists, and he had two solo albums released in England on Atlantic Records (‘David Elliott’ & ‘Solid Ground’).

    David has numerous credits to his name and some of the songs performed here have a certain notoriety. His composition of ‘I’m On Fire For You Baby’ was recorded by established Canadian rock band April Wine, who had a top ten hit with it, and it was recently placed in a third movie. Also Mick Grabham, lead guitarist with Procul Harum recorded it, and it is on his latest album ‘Mick The Lad’.

    Another of David’s originals, ‘I’ve Got A Bet With Myself’ was recorded by Levon Helm, drummer and vocalist with ‘The Band’ and David’s version was also included on his ‘All One’ CD. Also included is a song David co-wrote with legendary singer/composer Tim Hardin (of ‘If I Were A Carpenter’ and ‘Reason To Believe’ fame), called ‘If You Sell One Acre’.

    While living in England in his 20″s, David recorded with legendary guitarist Paul Kossoff. Free had broken up and after Paul’s initial solo album ‘Back Street Crawler’ in 1974 he was trying to put a new band together. Featured here for the first time is the David Elliott original ‘AlI One’ also recorded with Paul Kossoff during the same period.
