(TV) FW: verlaine question/Lloyd song?

["Casey, Leo J" <CaseyL@volpe.dot.gov>]

This (see below)sounds like a R. Lloyd song from Alchemy called "Blue and Grey".  Any others on the MM list care to weigh in?

Hi Leo,

I´m back again having listened to the 1st album once again and......I
discovered that the B-side contains tracks from another record but I´m not
able to recognize from where, as I don´t have any more albums with this guy
to compare with.

The number of the B-side pressing (written on the empty space close to the
label) is WEA 52196-B. The A-side is, however, correctly numbered 52156-A
(WEA).

I can´t identify the 5 songs but I don´t think they come from 2nd album
Dreamtime, which anyway doesn´t have this number (WEA 52196) according to
listings on Internet! I´m I right?

One excerpt I remember now:

2nd track, chorus: ...I´m feeling blue and gray......feeling blue and gray..

Please, help me to figure out what songs I have on my rare vinyl piece!

Vänligen / Yours sincerely

Ulf Eriksson
