Original 1974 PROMOTIONAL ADVANCED PREVIEW COPY ... RARE second LP by the greatest of SAVOY BROWN's front men ... Chris Youlden's voice was what made prime era '68 - 70 Savoy Brown albums so enjoyable
 ..
Some of the tracks on CITYCHILD could have been contenders for 'Raw Sienna'.  The scary 'Little Cog in a Big Wheel' with its almost sinister riff and the album closer 'It Ain't for Real' with its 'Boogie Nights' type riff is a 5-star tracks,  while 'Spare Change' could have graced any SAvoy Brown album and benefits from nice guitar as well.
Chris Youlden has a legendary voice and was capable of writing classic blues-boom material. Here his second solo effort, found Youlden handling production duties. Self-produced, the album was more varied than his debut. While the bluesy "Little Cog In a Big Wheel", "Love and Pain" and "It Ain't for Real" recalled his Savoy Brown-styled roots, "Conjure Wife" was an out-out-out rocker, while "Born and Raised In the City" and "Keep Your Lamp Lit" were actually funky (in a Boz Scaggs kind of way). Best of the lot was the haunting ballad "Spare Change". Like the debut, the set went completely under the radar of would-be fans....
 Conjure Wife- 3:40 Born And Raised In The City- 4:00
The Morning Light- 3:25
  Keep Your Lamp Lit- 3:24
  Little Cog In A Big Wheel- 3:54
  Peace Of Mind- 3:23
  Walking The Streets Again- 2:27
  Spare Change- 3:44
  Love And Pain- 5:49
It Ain't For Real- 3:09...
