Beginning From An End

Made in France Released in a simple cover . (Label notes) "This record is made to be played loudly". ℗ 1971 (Sleeve notes.) The purpose of this note is to give credit to the people who in my mind make our group a group in the full sense of the term. The rhythm section is only one part, the essential part is unfortunately rarely heard of---; our advisors, record company, our engineer, musical arrangers, brass players, Olympic Sound Studios and road manager. All those people coming together to make a complete unit--- FAIRWEATHER As much as we regard the L.P. as ours, it belongs as much to the people mentioned above, who have made and make it all possible. To us the names below represent much more than ink scratched on paper. A million thanks to--- Chris Williams and Keith Altham ---for giving us peace of mind and contentment. Alan O'Duffy---for being such a good friend and taking so much interest and care so as to compliment are playing. Derek Wadsworth and Roger Wade---for doing so much to so little. RCA---for fear of missing anyone's name, we have named the company as a whole, but deepest thanks to all concerned with special projects and promotion. Bud Parks and Terry Noonan---for a too much solo and for taking the interest and time. Believe me it was really appreciated. Alan Berry (Big Al)---for being so efficient ,reliable and such a good friend. Chris,Dave, Anton and Jeremy (Olympic Sound)---for helping the sessions take on a nice atmosphere. Jock---for the tea and for being Jock. Jennifer Kuik---for typing this note. B. J. Cole---for the most beautiful expressed steel playing. Kingsley Ward---for the use of your studio and farm, for "I Hear You Knocking" Which was the biggest buzz we've had for a long time.
