Splinter ORIG OZ LP The place I love NM ’74 Dark Horse L35318 George Harrison
Original OZ LP released in 1974 on Dark Horse Records. Cat: L35318. Comes in gatefold sleeve. Also has printed lyric insert which has some light age spots and is in Excellent condition.Out of all the albums cut by artists in the Beatles' orbit, Splinter's The Place I Love is the one that, along with Badfinger's albums, most deserves reissue. The first album released on George Harrison's Dark Horse Records label, The Place I Love which did chart was produced by the ex-Beatle and features the best music associated with him that was heard in the 14 years between Living in the Material World and Cloud Nine. Splinter, consisting of Bill Elliott and Bob Purvis, harmonizes beautifully, and their vocals recall John Lennon and George Harrison at their respective peaks. Coupled with upwards of a half dozen or more guitars (and keyboards, percussion, and Jew's harp) overdubbed by Harrison (working under various aliases, since he was still signed to EMI at the time) with some additional contributions by Alvin Lee), and a rhythm section that included Jim Keltner on drums and Klaus Voormann playing bass, it's not surprising that Splinter's debut album comes off like a cross between the Plastic Ono Band on a very good day and very melodic offshoots of All Things Must Pass in its leaner moments.
