David Byron - That Was Only Yesterday - The Last EP

That Was Only Yesterday – The Last EP was the last recording of David Byron less than a year before his death. In late 1983 Richard Manners (Blue Mountain Music) asked Richard "Digby" Smith (Rough Diamond, Free, Sammy Hagar, Mott the Hoople) to put together a band and cut some tracks with David. Including drummer Neil Conteh (Jagger/Bowie), bassist Alan Spenner (Joe Cocker, Roxy Music), guitarist Tim Renwick (Elton John, Eric Clapton, Pink Floyd), keyboardist John "Rabbit" Bundrick (Free, Roger Waters, The Who), along with the Chanter Sisters doing backing vocals a group of musicians were assembled. In February 1984 at Power Plant Studios, London three tracks were recorded.
00:00 That Was Only Yesterday (Gary Wright/Spooky Tooth)
05:28 Pride and Joy (Marvin Gaye)
09:23 Waiting for the Sun (Jim Morrison/Doors)
Musicians:
David Byron (Lead Vocals)
Neil Conteh (Drums)
John “Rabbit” Bundrick (Keyboards)
Tim Renwick (Guitar)
Alan Spenner (Bass)
The Chanter Sisters (Backing Vocals)

It is a pity that only a few of us understand the quality of this voice. A pure emotion transfer to our souls.

The performance of Byron in Waiting for the Sun is simply stated Amazing. RIP.

[kruizen]

Waiting for the Sun is the most outstanding track on this, and I'd dare say the best thing outside of Heep that he did.

David Byron, sempre foi o melhor vocalista do rock

[poofighter]

David was one of my favourite singers in UH but I didn't care for his version of this song Mike Harrison/Spooky Tooth did it best he had a unique voice sadly now both past away.

I love him tender, but don't understand his songs like these at all (( it isn't his level of talent.
