Album Notes by Don Adey
In 1975, I returned to Hollywood and moved to the top of Wonderland in Laural Canyon, and built a little home studio. One day on my way home I was elated to see the sign next to the Canyon Store “British Pub Opening Soon.” On opening night, I headed down the hill, which was packed. It was called “The Cat and Fiddle” and was an authentic country pub. There were crossed beams on the walls, and handmade dark wood bar with stools to match and a small outdoor patio with a horizontal split door at the entrance. I was greeted by co-owner Stephen Humphreys, who was married to movie queen Cassie Yates. He bought me a pint and showed me around- what a great place!

Kim Gardner and his wife Paula were partners with Steve and Cassie in Hollywood’s only British Pub. Kim was a great guy who told me he played bass with Ronnie Wood in the “Birds” and “The Creation” along with Rod Stewart in “Quiet Melon.” He also was with “Ashton, Gardner and Dyke,” Jackie Lomax, Billy Burnett and numerous others to the tune of 27 albums. After speaking with him, I knew I had to invite him up for a play one night. The drummer that I was with at the time was my old friend Terry Rae, who had played with me on all the clubs on Sunset Strip. We also recorded with our band “The Jamme” produced by John Phillips of “The Mamas and Papas.”

My bass player, Danny Sheridon couldn’t make it one Thursday night. Kim joined Terry and I and we wrote three songs which was the start of a writing partnership that lasted twenty years.

We would play on Thursday nights, but Terry couldn’t make it one night so Kim brought his mate Mitch Mitchel (Jimi Hendrix Experience) to do the drumming. The rest is history.
