Description
You are bidding on a great blues/rock LP: Brewers Droop "Opening Time" original RCA Victor SF 8301, 1972, made in UK. The gatefold cover is in VG+ condition; the record is in strong near mint condition.
Brewers Droop is the name of a Southern English band (whose history can be followed in "Hundred Watts" by Ron Watts) in which Mark Knopfler played for a few months in 1973. Knopfler split his time between teaching part-time, and playing with the band. Later, the Dire Straits song "Industrial Disease" mentions a malady (alongside smoker's cough) which shares its name with that band. The name is a reference to a slang expression for erectile dysfunction brought on by heavy drinking.
Members Ron Watts (vocals)Steve Darrington[2] (keyboards)
John McKay (guitar)
Malcolm Barrett (bass)
Bob Walker (drums)
