Love Sculpture
Another Helping
Love Sculpture was Dave Edmunds, David William Edwards and John David. When they recorded 'Sabre Dance' for John Peel,
who was so impressed that he played it twice in one programme, on 6th October 1968, it became an unexpected hit. At the
time the band had only recorded it as a session track, but, as producer Bernie Andrews recalled (in Ken Garner, The Peel
Sessions, p.57), after Peel had enthused over it, the piece was re-recorded and rush-released by Parlophone Records and
reached number five in the singles chart, eight weeks after being first heard on Top Gear. Love Sculpture recorded three
sessions, made up mainly of blues and rock'n'roll cover versions, for Peel, two in 1968 and one in 1969, but were unable
to repeat the success of their only hit, despite attempting another rock version of a classical piece, Georges Bizet's
'Farandole', in their final session. This album contains all but one of the songs they recorded for John Peel. After
they split up, leader Dave Edmunds continued to perform in a rock'n'roll influenced style, had a successful career in
the 1970s both as a solo artist and with his group Rockpile, and picked up airplay on Peel's shows.
