Their
second LP, O.K. Ken? was released in February 1969 and also garnered
chart success just like the prior album 40 Blue Fingers, Freshly Packed
and Ready to Serve. While it did surpass the first album by reaching No.
9 on the British charts, unlike the initial LP, it quickly dropped out
of the charts due to the lack of an album single to support it. The band
then decided to release a song from the first album, "When The Train
Comes Back” (BH 57-3146), after overdubbing a horn section over the
original track. The flipside of the single was “Hey Baby”, an outtake of
the O.K. Ken? album sessions. Christine Perfect composed and provided
piano and lead vocals on both single tracks but the single release was
only mildly successful.
Stan Webb wrote four of the songs on the
album and co-wrote two others with Christine Perfect. Webb sang all of
his compositions and Perfect sang on the Perfect/Webb collaboration,
"Get Like You Use to Be". Webb and Perfect sang a duet on the other
Perfect/Webb collaboration, "A Woman Is The Blues". Additionally,
Perfect sang on covers, "I Wanna See My Baby" and "Mean Old World". The
"Pony Trap" and "Remington Ride" are both instrumentals.
Following
her departure, Christine Perfect joined Fleetwood Mac in July 1970, and
"Get Like You Used to Be" became a staple of Fleetwood Mac's live act
from 1970 to 1975. Guitarists Danny Kirwan, Jeremy Spencer, Peter Green,
Bob Welch, Bob Weston, & Lindsey Buckingham all featured on
different performances of the song throughout the band's ever-changing
lineups.
