Description:

Two CD set featuring 57 tracks including the A and B sides of Neil Christian's singles and EPs released in the UK, Germany, France and Portugal. Plus single sessions out-takes and his originally unreleased four song audition recorded for legendary producer Joe Meek, a BBC session, and more rarities. Musicians in Christian's band, The Crusaders included at different times a pre- Yardbirds and Led Zeppelin Jimmy Page, Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore and pianist Nicky Hopkins. Christian's debut single, 'The Road To Love' was also the first released recording to feature the teenage Jimmy Page. We've included versions of the two songs from Christian's debut single without Meek's overdubs so the guitar played by Jimmy Page can be heard clearly for the first time. Never commercially released versions of the singles 'That's Nice' and 'Oops' feature, drawn from BBC World Service program Top Of The Pops. 1974 recordings including 'She's Got The Power' show Christian experimenting with glam rock.
