Island Sampler | various artists
1 Apr 1977
Island
The Bottom Line:
Rather strange promo compilation from So Far So Good period.
Side A contains mainly bad rock music apart from the reggae track by Rico Rodriguez. On side B John is surrounded by country music, flamenco guitar and a miserable attempt at Bonzo Dog humour.

Summer '75
1 May 1975
Island
The Bottom Line:
Sampling done right
Tracks well chosen and all relevant information for DJ's is present.
John Cale proves to be an excellent neighbour and the Fania All-Stars must be Island's answer to Santana.
