I found an old video bootleg of Ricky Ross and Davey Scott doing a warm-up show just as the Pale Rider album was about to be released and they were about to go on tour. I messed around with a few filers on one of my favourite songs from the album and voila - heres the sublime In This World")

Co-written with Gregor Philp. The fifth song on The Great Western Road CD and tenth song of the night. I think we might have to journey back until 1989 to arrive at the previous time Ricky Ross last donned a Fender Telecaster on stage.")

This medley was often a popular and familiar feature in Larrys solo concert sets if he had a piano to use. Studio recordings of Baby Out Of Wedlock and No More LSD For Me both appeared on the second version of 1971s Street Level LP released on One Way Records. Many years later Baby Out Of Wedlock appeared on the Cottage Tapes CDs. If Larry recorded a studio version of A Note From Mr. God he never got around to releasing it but it has been on several live albums, beginning with a full band arrangement with Alwyn Wall & Norman Barratt on the Friends On Tour LP recorded in 1981.

Earlier on during the concert, Larry had complained that the local promoters hadnt provided a proper piano, so he might not play any piano songs that night and might just stick to playing his guitar (the one he played on this tour actually was borrowed from Norman Barratt). Once he did finally sit down at the keyboard it was a different story. He ended up playing 20 piano songs in a concert where a large section of the audience had to leave and catch their bus or train home while Larry played on until 12:15am! In the longest of the piano medleys that night, Larry played some songs which had started life as songs in some of his musicals (hed taken part as a writer in Alison, and had also written other musicals like Birthday For Shakespeare and Lions Breath). Strong Love, Strange Peace was a song which was sometimes played live in his 1970s concerts but went unreleased until it appeared on the Come As A Child live album. It had been recorded during his days being published by Beechwood Music and an early studio recording featured as a bonus track on the 2 CD deluxe edition of Upon This Rock (released in 2000) while another orchestrated studio recording was issued as a bonus track on the numerous reissues of In Another Land (from 1993 onwards) ; Love On Haight Street was another song from a musical of the same name - a studio recording of that was released on 1999s 2 CD set Rough Street Love Letter; Ive Got To Learn To Live Without You was on 1972s classic album Only Visiting This Planet (MGM Records) and would be covered a few years later by Petula Clark; Soul Survivor was on 1973s So Long Ago The Garden album also recorded at AIR Studios in London; Butterfly was said to have been recorded for the same album but went unreleased until 2003s Instigator release in the Essential series of albums. This live recording from the Edinburgh Festival (possibly the only time the song was ever performed live) was issued on the Norman Conquest live album released in 2005. Near was first released on 1999s Father Touch fan club CD, and then as a stunning solo piano / vocal version on the Rough Diamonds, Precious Jewels (Belfast Bootlegs) 4 CD set in 2001. Studio recordings - instrumental and finally with a vocal - appeared on the final versions of the Tourniquet album (summer 2001-2006). When All My Dreams Are Ending had been written as early as 1965 and was around in his days with the band People! - who had shown little interest in recording the song. It went unreleased until a studio recording graced the Father Touch fan club CD in 1999. The song was only performed in concert on a handful of occasions. Without You had been played live a few times and showed up on the Gathered Moments and Belfast Bootlegs live compilations and Under His Love was co-written with Steve Camp who included a studio recording on his Start Believin album.")

Sometimes when Larry was asked about being the Father of Christian Rock he pointed out he was just continuing in the tradition of song from spirituals and preaching blues from half a century or more earlier than his own earliest records. Other times he did say, I liked it better when I was the only one doing it!
You can get it if you want it
but only from the Solid Rock (shop) folks!")
