Finally I got the only official release credited to Nicky Hopkins as a solo artist missing in my collection of Nicky Hopkins music

This is a single 7" - 45 RPM released in 1968, below are the pictures and the mp3 of the tracks, I also updated this in our Nicky Hopkins website here at Rocks Off

Lucky guy you are for getting that. The man was a legend. There has never been a more melodic player in rock and roll and there never will be. He was one of a kind.

Thanks!

I think this is a good example about how "producers" used to spoil the creativity of musicians, Nicky's first album and singles are good examples, as many others from this era. Imagine Jimmy Miller producing instead
