Steve York's with Mike Patto vocal
"I was on crutches at the time with a broken pelvis after a car accident. It featured some of my favourite UK musicians. This record was a mess but it is an interesting document. Camelo Pardalis is Latin for giraffe. A pregnant giraffe was brought to England from Spain for the cover photo. None of the musicians were paid." Steve York |
"He was one of the best guitarists I have heard. He played passionately right out of his heart and always had the most fabulous original ideas. At the same time he was always very tasteful. I can still hear his unique guitar sound, 35 years later – clear and shimmering. My favourite memory is when I played old Louis Jordan records for him. Few English musicians were acquainted with his music at the time and Ollie had a revelation when he discovered this link between r & b, jazz, and rock ’n roll. I wish I had had more opportunities to play with him. He was one of the great!" Steve York 2008 |
