Aidrian Gurvitz - Classic
I was clearing out some really old papers today and came across a piece of paper that i'd handwritten the lyrics of his this song to. I used to luv this song so much and still do....been listening to it all day on deezer. I'm not aware if he did anything else after this. Does anyone else remember and luv this song?

Have to say I hated the song, but each to his own. Wasn't Adrian Gurvitz in a band called the Baker-Gurvitz Army with inger Baker (drummer from Cream).
Don't know what happened to Adrian Gurvitz after "Classic". |

Don't know what happened to Adrian Gurvitz after "Classic". Adrian Gurvitz was the guitarist is a band called Gun who had a hit in 1968 with a track called Race With The Devil, considered to be the first heavy metal track - or at least laying the foundations for such. Have a quick look http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=iHrwgvhX3ko Classic was alrightish but not his best. Not really sure what happened to him after this except he was writing for his step daughters group No Secrets before they split. Proably sessioning in the US of A. Theres a couple of solo albums from the early 2000's - No Compromise and Classic Songs listed but I have never heard them. |

lol, yeah, that line is right up there aint it?
Must admit I'd been going through the old charts and limewiring songs from when I was just old enough to remember the charts........'Classic' made the list, as did REO Speedwagon's 'Keep On Loving You', which I used to hate....... But as I settle into middle age I find myself becoming increasingly partial to overblown AOR.........
