The album took its title from the Deep Purple song "Child in Time", a version of which appears on side two of the LP. This was Ian Gillan's first release after leaving Deep Purple, and also features his former Deep Purple colleague Roger Glover. Although not credited with playing on the album, Dave Wintour (bass player), Andy Steele (drummer) and Bernie Holland (guitarist), are listed among the songs' composers. In fact, Gillan had been recording demo tapes with non-Deep Purple material as early as 1972, and much of the Child In Time material was taken from the period September 1972 to April 1974. The album was recorded at Musicland Studios, Munich between December 1975 and January 1976 and mixed at Mountain Studio in Montreux. One single was released from the album, "You Make Me Feel So Good"/"Shame" in the UK in July 1976, on the Oyster label. Although Ian Gillan Band went on to produce material more suited to their jazz-rock label, this first album has much more of a harder rhythm and blues style. The album was reissued on CD when Virgin Records reissued the entire Ian Gillan Band catalogue in 1989, but there was some doubt as to whether they had the rights to reissue this album, or what tape they used. A remastered CD of the album was released in May 2007 by Edsel with extensive sleeve notes written by Ian Gillan. |
