Review:

In 1970 Pete Gage and Elkie Brooks (After she met Pete Gage, whom she would marry)
formed the short-lived rock fusion band, Dada.

The group worked well but changes were brought about with the arrival of another future star
by the name of Robert Palmer and Dada transformed into Vinegar Joe.
Island Records president Chris Blackwell subsequently suggested the three consider continuing their musical
partnership leading to the formation of Vinegar Joe with the addition of
former Robert Palmer, Jody Grind keyboardist Tim Hinkley , drummer Rob Tait, and bassist Steve York.

The band managed to release one obscure album for ATCO (1970′s “Dada” catalog number 2400 030),
