BLACK CAT BONESROD PRICE, PHIL LENOIR, STU BROOKS, BRIAN SHORT, DEREK BROOKS
Black Cat Bones were a blues-rock group from London founded in the late '60s by Paul Kossoff (guitar),
Stuart Brooks (bass), and Simon Kirke (drums). Kossoff and Kirke left to form Free,
and Brooks recruited Brian Short (vocals), Derek Brooks (guitar), Rod Price (guitar, vocals), and Phil Lenoir.
London’s Black Cat Bones were one of those bands from the late '60s that served
as an incubator for its various members’ later rock incarnations, in this case the bands
Free, Foghat, and Bad Company, all of whom drew members from Black Cat Bones.
As an intact band, they only released a single album, Barbed Wire Sandwich,
on Decca Records in 1970, and then splintered into the future

The album itself is a collection of rather generic period British blues pieces, a bit reminiscent of Cream in sound,
although that doesn’t hinder cuts like “Chauffer” and the best track here, “Please Tell Me Baby,”
from taking off into some interesting territory. But it’s straight British blues,
however well executed, and there’s really nothing prog rock about it,
although the band has been given that label in some circles.
Collectors of British blues-rock are going to love the sound on this album,
which sounds full, rich, and immediate...(AllMusic)
