British duo Splinter (Bill Elliott and Bobby Purvis) made an auspicious recording debut on George Harrison's A&M-distributed Dark Horse label in 1974 but never really achieved the fame they deserved despite releasing two follow-up albums. I wasn't much of a pop fan in the '70s, but I did like 'The Place I Love' enough to part with RM10 for the LP (import, no less!) which soon became a favourite memory-jolter. This BBC video clip has the duo performing a stripped-down version of their gorgeously melodic hit 'Costafine Town' from the album.
The Allman Brothers Band, with the late Duane Allman and Dickey Betts on guitar, performing the classic instrumental 'In Memory of Elizabeth Reed' at Fillmore East in 1970.
