	CMT.com : Brinsley Schwarz : Biography
		Brinsley Schwarz was a rambling, neo-psychedelic folk-rock band that borrowed heavily from Crosby, Stills & Nash and the Grateful Dead.
		When Brinsley Schwarz finally hit the stage, the band gave a competent but underwhelming performance, setting the stage for a flood of scathing reviews for both the concert and the eponymously titled debut album, which appeared weeks after the showcase.
		By the end of 1970, the Brinsleys released a second album, Despite It All, which indicated that they were evolving into a country-rock outfit; guitarist/vocalist Ian Gomm joined the band at the end of the sessions for the record.

		At the outset of their career, the Brinsleys attempted to gain fame by holding a showcase concert at the Fillmore East, but the publicity stunt backfired, making the band outcasts from the British music scene by the time their first album was released.

		Schwarz is a legendary British musician and founder of the band "Brinsley Schwarz" which was part of the so-called "pub rock" movement in England during the 1970s.
		Schwarz would go on to work with Graham Parker (the prototype for Elvis Costello) and lend his signature sound and "parts-based" style to many of Parkers recordings.
		After his conversion to Hamer, Schwarz ordered a number of Standards in various finishes, and became one of the first to play the Hamer "Prototype" model when it was released in the early 1980s.

	BBC - Mid Wales My Story - Brinsley Schwarz
		Brinsley introduced my 16 year old son to electric guitars and now he wants to form a rock band.
		I first saw the Brinsleys at the Paget Rooms Penarth in the Winter of 1971 and went on to see them In Newport (Kensington Court Club), Cardiff University, a club in Swansea (can't remember the name but Speedoo was the single at the time) and the Cardiff Top Rank.
		Brinsley Schwarz had an early morning spot so probably did not attract the same level of attention, however their fresh and original style made them many friends on the day.

		Confirmed sidemen Schwarz and Andrews both served in the Rumour (with and without Graham Parker) and have each produced and played alongside many other spotlight stars as well.
		The music on Brinsley Schwarz's albums seems at once totally removed and perfectly in keeping with the individuals' later escapades; little hints of the future keep cropping up amid the genial, American-flavored rock and mild pop.

	Santa Monica Mirror: Bargain CD of the Week: From England To Texas
		Brinsley Schwarz was the first band to sing the Lowe-penned title track, which has become a rock standard and their version here is a true delight.
		Better yet, their voices soar perfectly on the line, “Where is the harmony, sweet harmony?” It sounds like Queen ducked into the studio just to sing back-up on those six words.
		Let’s move from U.K. to the U.S. On Adam Carroll Live, one guitar, one harmonica and two songs are enough to convince you that he’s got it.

		Chose to play London pub circuit, perhaps because of early over-exposure; thus no albums became big sellers: Nervous On The Road '72, Please Don't Ever Change '73 followed by last LP New Favourites '74, which introduced them to Dave Edmunds, who used them as house band for film Stardust, later linked with Lowe in Rockpile.
		Members sessioned widely, backing Frankie Miller and others as a band; Andrews and Schwarz added freelance saxes to Dr Feelgood, Kursaal Flyers etc. Split Feb. '75; Schwarz and Rankin joined pub-rockers Ducks Deluxe in their final months; Lowe became house prod.
		Unfashionable in their lifetime, like Ducks Deluxe, Kilburn and the High Roads etc Brinsley were latterly famed for activity of members in late-'70s new wave; albums were later sought after by collectors.

		Though famous for launching Nick Lowe as an artist, the band was named after its guitarist, Brinsley Schwarz, a hugely underrated guitar player who went on to form the Rumour with Martin Belmont.
		Brinsley currently divides his time between being head guitar tech at Chandler Guitars and developing his own range of boutique tube amps.
		Dave Robinson, the Brinsleys manager and eventually a Stiff Records co-founder, had installed an all valve recording studio upstairs at the Hope and Anchor pub in Islington and was learning to use it by inviting groups of players to record something.

		But if you are already familiar with the sublime delights to be found sprinkled throughout the "Brinsley Schwarz" catalog, then you may very well enjoy this collection.
		For the Brinsley Schwarz fans among us (both of us) this is the answer to our prayers.

	Brinsley Schwarz - Power Pop - Randy's Rodeo
		Schwarz himself and keyboardist Bob Andrews would join Graham Parker's Rumour, and Brinsley-come-lately Ian Gomm made several good records for the Stiff label.
		However, the first couple of Brinsley Schwarz records were very country sounding, sometimes even venturing into CSN or Grateful Dead territory - nothing like what power pop would ultimately become.
		Brinsley Schwarz and Despite It All sound quaint in retrospect, but they catch fire occasionally ("Country Girl") and show signs of the wry humor that would mark Lowe's future work ("Rock and Roll Women").

	Get Ready to ROCK! Review of CD album by rock band Brinsley Schwarz called Silver Pistol and Please Don't Ever Change
		BGO continue with their repackaging of Schwarz’s material on these two-for-one CDs, which make for good and well annotated packages if leaving no room for extra tracks etc.
		With all sorts of elements, there’s some funky rhythms and, while the keyboards do fill in well, there is too much of a bland niceness (think Procul Harum).
		Schwarz’s own guitar (and sax and piano on the latter) should not be overlooked.

	Brinsley Schwarz - Silver Pistol - Review - Uncut.co.uk
		Trouble is, most pub-rock bands were produced with a similar lack of ambition, so their recordings from the time sound thin and inconsequential.
		That said, bassist and de facto frontman Nick Lowe wrote a bunch of beauties with the Brinsleys— the Lennon-ish "I Won't Make It Without You", for one—and there are charming covers here of Jim Ford's "Ju Ju Man", The Crickets' "Don't Ever Change" and even Leroy Sibbles' ska classic, "Hypocrite".

		The New Favourites Of Brinsley Schwarz (United Artists UAS 29641) 1974
		This group was an important part of the 'pub-rock' phenomenon in Britain in the seventies - Andrews, Lowe and Schwarz had all previously been with Kippington Lodge, a harmony band that Mark Wirtz had signed up to EMI's Parlophone label in the mid-sixties.
		As is well known now the band were subjected to one of the biggest hypes in rock history - a planeload of music journalists were flown across the Atlantic to see their debut at New York's Fillmore East, but were unimpressed with the then unknown band.

	Nick Lowe's Nonchalance
		Brinsley Schwarz started out as Britain's answer to Poco, moved on to become the premier band of the pub rock movement, and wound up something akin to the Oxford Encyclopedia of Hooks.
		They started out overhyped and wound up underrated; their last three albums were never even released in the US of A, and they quietly disbanded a couple years ago.
		Nominal leader Brinsley Schwarz and keyboard virtuoso Bob Andrews soon showed up in an outfit called the Rumour, a band that could do everything and had the vocalist/author they merited in Graham Parker.

		The Brinsley's biggest claim to fame is probably that they were Great Britain's first country rock band.
		And Bob Andrews, who is a great keyboard player as well as playing sax, along with guitar player extraordiaire Brinsley Schwarz, formed the Rumour, which went on to become one of the most talented bands to come out of Britain.
		Granted BS was inspired by the Band but by the time of their third album they had clearly found a voice all their own.

		Hawkwind were the stars of the show, with Man, hot off a two month nation wide tour, a late addition to a bill that included Brinsley Schwarz and Magic Michael.
		Man, who kicked off proceedings in the afternoon because they had another gig that night, were as Lauder clearly recalls 'blistering...somewhere in orbit.' Yet amazingly, when the group heard the tapes a couple of days later they were disappointed.
		Brinsley Schwarz an excellent band in the pub-rock mold featuring Nick Lowe at his most creative period follows with a very tight five song set.

		The members of the major pub rock bands -- Brinsley Schwarz, Ducks Deluxe, Bees Make Honey, Ace, Dr. Feelgood -- came from a variety of musical backgrounds, including folk-rock, blues, country-rock, and traditional rock & roll.
		None of the pub-rock bands became stars or had hits, but their do-it-yourself attitude and stripped-down sound -- as well as the creation of the pub-rock circuit itself -- paved the way for punk rock.
		Indeed, many pub rockers -- including Brinsley Schwarz's Nick Lowe, the 101ers' Joe Strummer, Flip City's Elvis Costello, Kilburn & the High Roads' Ian Dury and Graham Parker -- became important figures in punk and new wave just a few years after the pub-rock scene faded in the mid-'70s.
