Product Description
The Outlaws - not to be confused with the American country act of the same name - were one of a wave of instrumental groups that came along in British pop/rock music during the late 1950's and early 1960's. at the time, Cliff Richard's backing band the Shadows, were selling hundreds of thousands of records on their own, separate from the singer, and enjoying the kind of star status that guitarists of just a generation earlier could only have dreamt about. The Outlaws were distinguished by the unique sound of their records, courtesy of producer Joe Meek, and the presence of three top-flight players, one near-legend (Bobby Graham), and one future guitar god, Ritchie Blackmore, in their ranks. Highlights include 'Freeborn', 'Girl from Ohio' and 'Prisoner'. BMG. 2004
