1) Taste was formed in Cork, Ireland in August 1966 as a trio consisting of Rory Gallagher on guitars & vocals, Eric Kitteringham on bass, and Norman Damery on drums. In their early years Taste played around the UK before becoming regulars at Maritine Hotel, an R&B club in Belfast, Northern Ireland. In 1968 the original lineup split. The new lineup formed with Richard McCracken on bass and John Wilson on drums.
The new Taste moved permanently to London where they signed with the record label Polydor. In 1969 Taste released their first two studio recordings, the self-titled 'Taste' first with 'On the Boards' soon following, the latter showing Rory and the band's jazz influences with Gallagher playing saxophone on numerous tracks. In November 1968 the band opened for Cream at Cream's farewell concerts in London. Taste then began touring the United States and Canada opening for Eric Clapton and Ginger Bakers new band Blind Faith.
Perhaps their most notable performance came in 1970 as part of the Isle of Wight Festival, joining such notable musicians as Jimi Hendrix and The Who. They were well-received by those in attendance, ultimately being called back for five encores. Later the same year Taste would once more tour Europe before performing their last show on New Year's Eve in Belfast. In 1970] Taste split leaving front man Rory Gallagher to pursue his solo career. Gallagher received a liver transplant in 1995, but died of complications later that year in London, England aged 47.
In the August 2006 issue of Blues in Britain it was revealed that John Wilson had made Taste active once again. John has been at the fore front of the Irish Blues and R&B scene ever since his days in Them with Van Morrison,and of course in Taste with Rory Gallagher. Along with with Richard McCracken on bass and Belfast guitarist and singer Sam Davidson,who worked with John in the Belfast Blues Band.
They are still performing at Blues and R&B festivals around the world with both Richard McCracken (when his other commitments allow), and Albert Mills on bass.
Taste have since signed to label Bad Reputation and released the album 'Wall to Wall'.

Taste Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the whole world looks upside down, I'll remember

Oh, stand with me

In the first verse of Taste’s song “I’ll Remember,” the singer expresses his gratitude and love for someone who has been there for him through thick and thin. He promises that even if he’s no longer around or if the world seems to be falling apart, he will always remember this person who has stood by him. The second verse brings in a theme of chaos and uncertainty as the singer compares the tumultuous skies to a gods’ anger. Despite this, he still urges this person to stand with him no matter what happens. The song ends with the repetition of the first verse, emphasizing the singer’s appreciation for the person’s unwavering love and support.

If you'll be around when I not around
If you'll still be present in my life even when I'm no longer here
And the whole world looks upside down, I'll remember
I'll cherish the memories of you being there for me through the difficult times

The gods so full of anger.
