"My deal with RCA had run out and I was at the recording studio and Robert Plant came down to check out the studios. He had a listen to some of my stuff and offered me a deal right there and then.

Get It is the third album by Welsh rock musician Dave Edmunds, released in April 1977.Some of the songs were performed by an early "trio" version of Rockpile (Edmunds, Nick Loweand Terry Williams); others (such as "I Knew the Bride" and "Little Darlin'") were recorded by Edmunds solo.Also recorded in these sessions was the non-album Edmunds-Lowe tune "As Lovers Do", which was used as theB-side of both "Here Comes the Weekend" and the later "Crawling from the Wreckage.""New York's a Lonely Town", the B-side of "Where or When" was also recorded during the six-week sessionsfor the album. Two recordings that appear on Get It were from much earlier sessions.
