California '99



 
Well, I dug out my copy and sorry Pete is not on it.
They do a cover of the Underture by Pete, but he isn't
listed anywhere as playing on it. Jimmie Haskell
wrote half of it, and Bill "spare the vowels" Szymczyk helped
out on a few tunes too. Joe Walsh is on there, along with
Merry Clayton and Big Wanda and the Wombats. It was
made in Hollywood in 1971 and came out on ABC records.
Like I said before, the record comes in a big poster thats folded
to the size of a record sleeve. The poster has a map of what
the US is suposed to look like by then. Since this was written in 
'71, some of their predictions seem quite silly now. The US was
supposed to be bankrupt in 1980! It seems this is a "futuristic
concept album". The catalog number i have is ABCX 728.
