Henry McCullough, Chris Stainton and Alan Spenner ( of The Grease Band ) joined original Spooky Tooth members Harrison, Grosvenor and Kellie to complete the album. The Grease Band members had achieved international prominence the year before, backing Joe Cocker at Woodstock. The album was co-produced by Stainton and Chris Blackwell.
As one reviewer commented, “…Harrison proved more than ready to command center stage in ‘Puff’. His interplay with the newly augmented band mimicked the heavy rock-soul vibe Cocker tapped on his debut. That was most obvious in a cover of The Beatles’ “I Am the Walrus”.
Perhaps “The Last Gasp” would have been a more apt title here. Spooky Tooth appeared to be on its last legs, and being propped up by members of the Grease Band, this record should have been merely one of those contract fulfillments, but it isn’t. It’s a good, solid effort that includes a burning cover of the Beatles’ “I Am the Walrus.” Unfortunately, Spooky Tooth didn’t stay together to reap the rewards of this new combination of musicians.
