RPs voice!!!! ❤ He was sooo talented. I feel like Sade wrote 'Smooth Operator' about Rober Palmer!

Hey no worries thanks for appreciating what we did back then and keeping it alive and in circulation. From a creative point of view you could be right - I did die a little at the end of VJoe. The big guns at Island Records and A&M stepped in and told us what we should be doing and killed my inspiration somewhat. 'Black smoke rising from the Calumet' tells the story of my disillusionment. But it was a good life while it lasted and the life that followed is still doing fine. No regrets. Thanks.

A young impressive Robert Palmer on here. Surprisingly, more people don't find this video.

Truly phenomenal white soul band. Rob Palmer sadly missed.

Thanks for a great album and a great collection of talents, Pete! I heard a radio commercial with a snippet of "Never Met a Dog' on it and that was enough for me to buy the LP! One of the best purchases I made from a commercial (Wishbone Ash 1st LP being another one)

[25 May 2021] Is it Robert Palmer who's singing lead on this track?

Well well - I was amazed to read I died - that might explain a few things such as why my students don't listen to anything I tell them. I'm obviously suffering from the same problem as Bruce Willis in 6th Sense? Nah people didn't die - went on to do much else in the industry including sticking with Elk as a solo artist for a while. Then Production - then management and now reside in Oz - but glad you still rate our efforts back in the day - Pete Gage

Still around? My sincere thanks for the great music. Caught the Vinegar Joe bug a couple of years ago. Now I know what to use a timemachine for first, should I aquire one.

@leehogg4624

Good to hear you're alive and well lol. Great band and I'm a huge Robert Palmer fan . Just looking at vinegar Joe now. Great stuff 👍

Outside of Zeppelin III, this may have been the best album cover of the 70s, and easily one of the most under-rated bands. Gage's death catapulted the two major players into hugely successful solo careers, but this was a band where the whole was more than the sum of the parts. Brilliant.

@StillGotMyElf Pete Gage didn't die until after Elkie and Robert had already embarked on solo careers (he was also married to Elkie, until they divorced)

@StillGotMyElf Ah yes, poor Les... He was temporarily replaced by Peter Green, which is why Stone the Crows wrote 'Good Time Girl' {it has the line "I'm not a black magic woman"}, but after rehersing he left without recording anything...

@SilverWolfMoon I realised that when I woke up this morning. I think I got them confused with Stone The Crows, because Leslie Harvey did die while that band was together. Thanks for correcting me :)

@RAMJAMOZ Whoops! Well, I can't recall where I read that you had died {no, it wasn't Wiki}, but thank you very much for setting that straight! And thank you for such great music :)

Ha! What a surreal conversation! Almost like the one about the mature film star who was approached on the street with: "Oh! Didn't you used to be so-and-so?" I once 'found' a musician on the web who according to numerous websites, was meant to be 'dead', but who was - and is - alive and well and living in France! The internet is a giant echo-chamber. 'Randall and Hopkirk, Deceased': "But you're dead, Marty..." "Oh yes, so I am, oh well, never mind."
