Ted Lucas - the guy "helping out on a lot of the great recordings coming out around that mid-70s time"

Singer-songwriter Billie Marten picks the only album by guitar virtuoso and US cult hero Ted Lucas for The New Cue's An Album To Blow Your Mind segment: "I came across it as I was looking for something new and good over the third lockdown back in winter, and I was convinced it was a modern artist trying to sculpt the best sonics plucked from every great 70s recording. I did some research - after milking this record so much that I’ve now had to place a temporary ban on it - and it turns out he was one of the greats in assisting everyone under a session player guise of ‘exotic string specialist’, helping out on a lot of the great recordings coming out around that mid-70s time".
