2008 collection from the musician best known as producer and engineer to the Beatles, Pink Floyd and others. A legend in the industry and a performer of a number of hits in his own right. 'Don't Let it Die' was a massive hit and won him an Ivor Novello award, this after the Beatles may or may not have turned it down because it was a little too complicated for Ringo to sing. His style was varied from the vaudeville of his youth to more contemporary influences of the late '60s and early '70s. This compilation brings together his first two albums Don't Let it Die and Hurricane Smith and includes the singles 'Don't Let it Die', 'Oh Babe What Would You Say?', 'Who Was It?' and 'My Mother Was Her Name'. Hurricane Smith will obviously be of interest to Beatles and Pink Floyd fans but he has a large cult following of his own and these albums have not been available on CD outside Japan. 7Ts.

One of the more unlikely hit-makers in pop history, Hurricane Smith was a middle-aged engineer with a reedy, nasal voice who had made his only previous claim to fame by odd-jobbing around Abbey Road long enough to earn a spot engineering for the Beatles prior to Revolver, then building on his résumé by producing Pink Floyd's first two albums as well as the Pretty Things' landmark S.F. Sorrow. True to his lack of form, his recordings of 1972-1973 revealed an artist more in love with pop crooners than British beat groups, although his songs were well-illustrated tableaux of English life with contemporary art rock productions (needless to say, they were also engineered very well). An eccentric, Smith's songs didn't sound commercial enough to really hit, nor were his songs or performances striking enough to make him a cult favorite. He endures as a pop footnote; think of John Howard or Brian Protheroe with an affinity for the early age of falsetto crooners (Rudy Vallée and Al Bowlly).
