TERRY REID

A minor but interesting late-'60s British rock singer, Terry Reid could have been a lot more famous if he had been able to accept the slot of lead singer for the New Yardbirds in 1968. That slot, of course, went to Robert Plant, and the New Yardbirds became Led Zeppelin. Unlike Plant, Reid was also a guitarist, and the opportunity to head his own group no doubt played a part in his decision to gun for a solo career. Leading a guitar-organ-drums power trio, he recorded a couple of respectable, though erratic, hard rock albums while still a teenager in the late '60s

Reid's initial pair of albums are very similar, and it's really a toss-up as to which one is better. 

If either rates a slight edge, it would be Terry Reid, as it finds his songwriting skills slightly 

more developed. The Donovan influence is again apparent on the cover of the 

Scotsman's "Superlungs My Supergirl," and "Stay with Me Baby" is another well-done 

blue-eyed soul showcase. As a songwriter, Reid still had a way to go, sounding 

better on the gentler, folkier numbers than the all-out power trio numbers. 

Such unfulfilled promise was understandable to a degree, as Reid was not yet 20 

when this was released; unfortunately, he would never significantly 

expand on the promise of his first two LPs...(AllMusic)
