From the album cover: "The core band for LONDON SESSIONS was a
by-then-typical blend of white English rockers and Chicago blues veterans.
This time the guest guitar here is Irish blues-rocker Rory Gallagher
who'd recently begun a solo career following the demise of his Cream-style
trio, Taste.  Gallagher's bitten-off riffs and slightly speedy edge on tracks
like "Young Fashioned Ways" clearly distinguishes him from Sammy Lawthorn,
the 'South side' (so to speak) of this two-guitar team..."
