David LaFlamme - Inside Out

1980, Line Records (Germany)

David LaFlamme was singer, songwriter, and violin player with classic 'Frisco 60s band Its A Beautiful Day (who eponymous first album, ranks high among my personal all-timers).   I stumbled across this album many times reduced in a vinyl shop in Camden.  I am sure it has to be worth more than the measly fiver I paid for it...

Keef Hartley Band - The Battle of North West Six

From 1969, a decent slab of jazz rock with blues noodles.  You can imagine sitting cross-legged at the North West London Polytechnic nodding along to this band.  Probably calling each other "maaaaan" and wearing an army surplus greatcoat.
