West, Bruce & Laing - Rock Sensation (1973) [Complete LP]
West, Bruce & Laing was the late Jack Bruce (1943-2014), formerly of Cream, on bass, the late Leslie West (1945-2020), formerly of Mountain, on guitar and Corky Laing, also formerly of Mountain, on drums.
The is a German pressing circa 1973 which features tracks from West, Bruce & Laing's first two albums: Why Dontcha ( https://www.amazon.com/Why-Dontcha-Bruce-Laing-West/dp/B0012GN422/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1IKTNOYPVY8U4 ), released in 1972, and Whatever Turns You On ( https://www.amazon.com/Whatever-Turns-You-Cardboard-High-Definition/dp/B0095V6D1U/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1IKTNOYPVY8U4 ), released in 1973.
It was released on the Karussel label which apparently started as a Swedish label before being purchased in the 1960's by Deustche Grammophon, which used it as a budget label during the period this album was released. It is now owned by Universal Music.
I found this copy recently in a second hand record store. I hadn't seen these West, Bruce & Laing tracks released on this label before so, although I have the original 1972 and 1973 album releases, I bought this one to put on the channel.
