Gerry Rafferty (album)

Gerry Rafferty, released in 1974 on Transatlantic Records (TRA 270) (reissued 1978 in U.S. on Visa Records [Visa 7006]), is mainly a compilation of Humblebums material that Gerry Rafferty had written and performed while in that group. It comprises most of the serious musical content of the last two albums released by that group, with the exception of "So Bad Thinking" (which was the B-side of his "Can I Have My Money Back?" single). The remaining content of those two albums were mostly humorous Billy Connolly compositions. All song versions on this album (except "So Bad Thinking") are available in CD form on various Humblebums compilations.
