Chris Farlowe who is best known for his classic sixties world wide hit “Out of Time”, is a master of soulful blues, with his live act honed to perfection after 50 years in the music business.
From November 1962 until 1965, Chris released 6 singles which had limited commercial success, although critical acclaim was widespread.
Chris then went into semi-retirement for a while, until a chance meeting with Mike Vernon produced 2 albums in 1985 and 1986.

  Chris Farlowe - Biography - AOL Music
Chris Farlowe always seemed destined for great things as a singer -- and based on the company he kept on-stage and the people he worked with in the mid-'60s, he did succeed, at least on that level.
He eventually took the name Chris Farlowe, the surname appropriated from American rock & roll vocalist Tal Farlow, and was fronting a group called the Thunderbirds, as Chris Farlowe & the Thunderbirds.
Farlowe was rescued from oblivion by his better-known contemporary (and fellow Immediate Records alumnus) Jimmy Page, appearing on the latter's Outrider album in the 1980s, which heralded a BBC appearance that brought him back to center stage in the public consciousness for the first time in two decades.
