Wallis led The Pink Fairies (the U.K.'s heaviest and hairiest band in the late '60's/early '70's) through their most recognized period and wrote the bulk of the material on their classic Kings Of Oblivion album from 1973.
Larry's story ('cause the guy sure ain't history yet, dig?) is a very long and humorous one.
Since this new CD is a total scalp burner, I figured it was time for his story to be looked upon with the respect it deserves.

Mick Farren, whose association with Wallis predates the latter's tenure in the Fairies, is a palpable presence here, and not just because he contributed mordant, apocalyptic lyrics to two of the songs ("Downtown Jury" and "Don't Mess With Dimitri").

 Amazon.com: Kings of Oblivion: Music: The Pink Fairies
Larry Wallis and Duncan Sanderson appeared on early 'head recordings, and City Kids is on On Parole and the self-titled Motorhead album, among others.
Drived by the amphetamine-fuelled crunching guitar assault of Larry Wallis, the storming, ferocious rhythm section of Duncan Sanderson and Russell Hunter and the ironic, blistering vocals of 'Sandy', the Fairies displays here an overwhelming proto-punk, glitter/mod drenched raging rock'n'roll, in an smashing, mind-expanding, irreprehensible sequence of thunderous songs.
But when Mick Wayne was kicked out, this left the way for the glorious return of Larry "Lazza" Wallis, who'd been showing off his wares with "Blodwyn Pig" and "U.F.O" (Wallis' parting shot to U.F.O after being fired for not turning up to rehearsals had been "You May Rehearse, I Create").

Larry Wallis was one of the star attractions on the ‘Stiff Live Stiffs’ tour that toured Britain including ‘Reckless Eric’, ‘Elvis Costello’, ‘Dave Edmunds’, ‘Nick Lowe’ and ‘Ian Dury and the Blockheads’.
This is perhaps best shown in ‘I’m A Police Car’, a song first released by Larry Wallis in 1977 in the midst of punk rock as a single on the newly formed Stiff Label.
The Pink Fairies, Hawkwind, and Mott the Hoople were probably the only established bands that still had street credibility when punk rock arrived on the scene, and that attitude still holds true with Larry Wallis today.

All the above material comes from the private collection of Pink Fairies/Motorhead guitarist Larry Wallis who was the lead guitarist in the electric Shagrat and played acoustic-bass on the acoustic tracks.
To Larry (again) and Colin Hill for releasing the limited edition vinyl which was responsible for 'turning people on to Steve's music' and to Clive Zone who first spotted the incorrect speed fault on the electric tracks 'Peppermint Flickstick' and 'Boo I Said Freeze!' so that it could be corrected.
The acoustic stuff was recorded on 4 track in Wallis's dad's garage and plays at the correct speed in reasonably good sound quality.

 Broken Statue/It's All In The Picture
From the strummed bass and crashing cymbal and tom-tom intro to the crazed, echoed and mere seconds worth of solo from Larry Wallis to the chorus of the title fading it all out, "Broken Statue" is a psychedelic punk shot in the dark that hit all targets simultaneously.
And the stellar cast backing him on this rock’n’roll shrug-of-the-shoulders-while-storming-the-gates-of-Heaven were: Larry Wallis, Andy Colquhoun and Alan Powell.
And throughout the piece is a wafting, ever-present weird drone of Wallis multi-tracked rhythm guitars that flesh out the background in the most subliminal/sublime way.
