Short intro

Mallard is the eponymous debut by the group Mallard, who formed after tensions between them and Captain Beefheart exploded, causing them to leave his band though the album's last track is a Beefheart composition. It was reissued as a CD with the band's other album, In a Different Climate, added on. Mallard got their start with the help of Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson: he lent them his mobile studio for their work he is thanked in the liner notes. Neither album achieved any sort of commercial success. Songs in album Mallard - Mallard 1975. Mallard - Back On The Pavement. Mallard - She's Long And She's Lean. Mallard - Road To Morocco.
