In addition to their latest Intertel video release the HMC label have announced their next CD release, ‘1974 L.A. Jam sessions’ – For those of you that enjoyed ‘A Toot and a Snore’,
the Mistral label release from the CD bootlegs heyday that featured John Lennon and a cast of many sloshing about in the record plant in L.A. in the middle of John’s ‘lost weekend’.
Variously drunken, rude and sloppy in equal measures, this was one release that gave a fly on the walls overview of Lennon and chums, ‘letting their hair down’.

This new release features a new transfer of that tape which extends the recording but a few seconds at either side, the rest of the two disk set features yet another session at the studios
while recording Harry Nilson’s ‘Pussy Cats’ album with a different set of characters including Simon and Garfunkel turned up to play.
