A respectable follow up to their eponymous debut bringinga distinct country-rock
"Lie Back and Enjoy It" is the second album by British-American blues rock group Juicy Lucy, which was released in 1970. Although several members of the band had been replaced since the release of their first album, most notably singer Ray Owen and lead guitarist Neil Hubbard, it was generally considered to be a respectable follow up to their eponymous debut album of the previous year. The bulk of the songs were written by the band, although the album does feature the addition of Willie Dixon's "Built for Comfort" and a cover of the Frank Zappa song "Willie the Pimp".Songs like "Built for Comfort," "Thinking of My Life," and even a cover of Frank Zappa's "Willie the Pimp" owe more to a premonition of ZZ Top than a bad dream in the bayou, while the rest of "Lie Back and Enjoy It" found the group pursuing a distinctly country-rock flavored direction.The album peaked at number 53 in the UK Albums Chart in November 1970.Line-up:Paul Williams - vocals, congas, pianoChris Mercer - saxophone, keyboardsMick Moody - guitarsGlenn Ross Campbell - steel guitars, mandolinKeith Ellis - bassRod Coombes - drums, percussion
