Olympic Studios 1&2 became the bands new “home from home” and with producer Jimmy Miller they began to work on song selection, arranging and recording the album to be know as “It’s All About”. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There was still a feeling in the band of everyone wanting to have a share in writing but it was becoming an inescapable reality that only Gary was driven to WORK at writing songs and even he had trouble writing fast enough! There were always covers. Gary came up with a track from an album he’d heard by Janis Ian. The song was Society’s Child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also suggested was the Dylan song “Too Much of Nothing”. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luther Grosvenor had come up with an original entitled “Bubbles” which, being very catchy, was Spooky Tooth’s answer to Traffic’s “Hole in My Shoe” It was a childlike look into the mind expanding fashion of the time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lou Rawls classic “Evil Woman”, which on stage was to become a monster sometimes lasting 30 minutes was also included. Skeletons, mainly from Gary, were worked on with Miller, very much part of the creative process, encouraged by his brief from Blackwell to get the band a hit single with which to launch the album. “Straight Down to the Bottom”, which is exactly where it went and “Love Really Changed Me” are two examples. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, “Sunshine Help Me” the song that had first caught Blackwell’s ear, was recorded and became even more obviously the front runner for first official Spooky Tooth single.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
