Listen At YouTube: Pussy - Invasion( ) Collection of tracks from this early 70s
post-Jerusalem UK hard rock group also managed and produced by
Ian Gillan (Deep Purple). Includes songs from their lone single
for the Deram label plus ( ) other previously unreleased
recordings!
The band was formed immediately after the break-up of Jerusalem
by its founding members Paul Dean & Ray Sparrow along with
Bob Cooke, who was eventually replaced by Brian Goff. They made
the decision not to continue with the name Jerusalem out of
respect for what Jerusalem was all about at that time in musical
history, after all Jerusalem was a one-off moment in time
creation and could never be recreated. Although the musical
direction of Pussy was very different to Jerusalem, which is
surprising as Paul was the main writer for both bands (although
his liking for riffs is still prominent in places), they
continued to keep that raw, no rules edge which set them apart
from many of the bands of the period
Gillan was far more proactive with Pussy and was actually
responsible for many backing vocals on the songs (also played
piano on Feline Woman version 2, some percussion and came up
with the idea for 'Place in the Sky'). Pussy were a good-time
band with no pretensions of being super musicians or technical
geniuses. If it seemed like fun it was worth a try, which
explains a lot about their sound and direction. On stage
anything could happen, no rules of course! They gigged all over
the UK and Germany as a main and support act, very much in the
same way as Jerusalem had done. After the disbanding of Jerusalem - (the rumors over the years
said there was a second unreleased Jerusalem album - this is not
true - it was actually the Pussy album) - Decca (Deram Label)
decided to continue the Jerusalem contract for Pussy. The first
and only Pussy release on Deram was a single entitled 'Feline
Woman'. The recordings found here represent what was to be the
Pussy debut album plus other various tracks all recorded between
1972 and 1973. (rockadrome.com) Ray Sparrow - Drums, Backing Vocals Brian Goff - Guitar (Track 1-11) Bob Cooke - Guitar, Penny Whistle, Backing Vocals (Track 12, 13) Paul Dean - Lead Vocals, Bass, Backing Vocals & Ian Gillan - Producer, Backing Vocals, Percussion, Piano
