Kapt. Kopter and the (Fabulous) Twirly Birds is a 1972 studio album by Randy
California. This album was recorded and released following Randy California’s
departure from Spirit. Spirit’s fourth LP, Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus
[MOVLP555], reached the charts but took an inordinate amount of time to receive
attention. The album would eventually be certified gold by the RIAA in 1976. Following
the departure of Jay Ferguson and Mark Andes in early 1971, Spirit recruited John
Arliss (and later John Fine) on bass and resumed playing live shows in March 1971”.
Randy California, however, was also growing disenchanted in Spirit and left the band
in July 1971, along with bassist John Fine.
Randy spent much of his time afterwards in jam sessions with various musicians
in Topanga Canyon clubs, particularly a club known as The Corral. Some of the
musicians who appeared in these jam sessions, along with Noel Redding (under the
pseudonym ‘Clit McTorius’), Leslie Sampson (the drummer from Noel’s band Road,
under the pseudonym ‘Henry Manchovitz’) and Ed Cassidy (as ‘Cass Strange’), would
end up working with Randy when he started recording solo material in 1972. The
resulting album featured numerous covers of the works of contemporary acts such as
the Beatles and James Brown, with less emphasis upon original material by Randy.
The album was also heavily influenced by the death of Jimi Hendrix in 1970, who
had been friends with Randy since they played together in Jimmy James and the
Blue Flames.
Available as a limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on transparent and black
swirled vinyl. |
