Anyone familiar with Jerry Williams knows this "throwaway" B-Side is a bit displaced from the rest of his catalog, but not by far. The American blues/rock singer/songwriter was known for not only his own music but as writer of Eric Clapton's "Running on Faith", Bonnie Raitt's "Real Man", and B.B. King's "Standing on the Edge of Love."

Blind Ravage was formed in September, 1969 in Laval, a suburb of Montreal, Quebec. Jean (John) Charbonneau (guitar/vocals), and Bob DuFour (bass/lead vocals) had been working together along with drummer Danny Gorman doing gigs in various nightclubs around Montreal. They met with Andre Deguire (drummer/vocals) at one of those nightclubs. On account of Danny's departure, Jean and Bob asked Andre to join them. They played clubs mostly in Montreal doing covers of Rod Stewart, Deep Purple, Spencer Davis, Zeppeiln, & others that influenced them in their own material. They produced an album on the Crecent Street label and it was released in 1971. The band played clubs in Canada and some North Eastern states before disbanding in 1973. Bob, Andre, and Serge (Fleury) came up with Clockwork and became very popular in Quebec. "Mean Lady" / "Cybernaut" was their only release before disbanding in 1975.
