Radio Flora TM More music, more variety
“Country Boy” is a song the British band Heads Hands & Feet, from the album Heads Hands & Feet, released in 1971.
Written by Tony Colton, Albert Lee, and Ray Smith. Lead vocals Albert Lee. Harmony vocals by Chas Hodges.
The group formed after the breakup of Poet and the One Man Band in 1969 (who released an album on UK Verve and US Paramount with nearly the same musicians as HH&F). Heads Hands & Feet recorded their debut album Home From Home in 1970, which was shelved by the label and did not see release until 1996.
In 1971, they released their proper debut on Capitol Records as a double album in the United States, but as a single disc in Europe (on UK Island). While still relatively unknown, they served as the supporting act for Deep Purple’s series of concerts from 5 to 8 March in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee, and Aberdeen, Scotland. They were the opening act at the free Hyde Park, London concert on 3 July. They opened for Humble Pie and Grand Funk Railroad.
