WOW WHAT A FIND !!! This is a RARE ORIGINAL UNRELEASED, APRIL MUSIC / THE BEATLES / APPLE RECORDS RELATED ACETATE by THE LOMAX ALLIANCE / JACKIE LOMAX from 1966/7, ORIGINAL UK UNRELEASED DEMO ACETATE PRESSING IN GREAT CONDITION !!!
The Lomax Alliance was JACKIE LOMAX band before going solo, the story was that BRIAN EPSTEIN (the Beatles manager) signed the band to management and moved them to London. The band recorded some demos in London but the failure of the band’s one and only single on CBS meant that all the other tracks remained unreleased. The BEATLES were friends and big fans of JACKIE LOMAX and when they started APPLE RECORDS, JACKIE LOMAX was the first signing to APPLE RECORDS !!! A different version if this track was finally issued in 2010 on a compilation called: JACKIE LOMAX - LOST SOUL !!! Here is an ACETATE from that very session in 1966/7 in London commissioned by BRIAN EPSTEIN who might have even held this ACETATE at one point ???

Here is a piece of information I found on the net:

JACKIE LOMAX says '...Bugs got a job in a band called the Lost Souls, then they got me.  It was sort of a copy group of the Beatles, then it started to change into an R&B group, which became the Lomax Alliance.  Epstein ended up in New York with the Beatles for the Shea Stadium concert, and we went to Shea with the Beatles, and hung out with them at the Warwick Hotel.  Epstein wanted to take me back to London as a singer, but I told him to listen to the whole band, and the entire Lomax Alliance went back to London….'

The line-up was Tom Caccetta (using the surname 'Peters')(bass), John Cannon (guitar), Jackie Lomax (guitar, vocals) and Bugs Pemberton (drums) and they were signed to CBS.  They had recorded some tracks in New York before crossing the Atlantic and Brian Epstein arranged for them to record more titles to complete an album, produced by John Simon.

JOHN SIMON says  '...I was producing the Cyrkle (named by Epstein - a name they weren't excited about), and Epstein said to me that, with all due respect to the Cyrkle,  he had an act that would REALLY impress me. It was Jackie….'

JOHN CANNON says  '...the New York recordings were engineered by Roy Halee (Dylan, The Byrds and many more) at the Columbia Studios and the London ones were engineered by Dave Siddle (Animals, Donovan etc.)….'

JOHN SIMON says  '...Linda Eastman (later McCartney) was hanging around snapping pics…'

In Britain, the only Lomax Alliance single, Try As You May / See The People, proved no more successful then the Undertakers' releases in spite of Brian Epstein's backing. Unfortunately Epstein's untimely death intervened and no further Lomax Alliance recordings were released.  The band were 'inherited' by Robert Stigwood who was too preoccupied with the BeeGees to pay any attention to the Lomax Alliance.
