Elephant’s Memory are one of those they-really-coulda-been-somebody bands. Songs on the Midnight Cowboy soundtrack, John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s band of choice when they were slumming in NYC in the early 70s. But for whatever reason, it never really happened for them. Which doesn’t mean they didn’t drop a few strong albums along the way, including 1972’s Elephant’s Memory, which is where Madness can be found.
