The Scrubbers Sessions (rec. 1974 – 1975, rel. 1996) This 20-track release is a kind of Holy Grail for Marriott fans. Cut at his home studio with a bunch of friends (“the Scrubbers”), it’s raw, heart-felt, and creative, showing all the potential that failed to surface on the post-Frampton Pie records. Ridley and competent blues pianist Tim Hinkley played a large part – Ridley’s vocal on “Send Me Some Loving” is one of his best anywhere – but it’s really a Marriott solo album
