FORGE BAND
Sorry, I don´t have any info about this band.
QUIVER
He went to England in 1969, and he helped form Quiver. This was around February 1970. The band was formed in Ladbroke Grove, London. After some initial tries, Cal Batchelor joined, thus forming the first complete lineup of the band
Then, Tim Renwick teamed around 1970 with Canadian guitarist Cal Batchelor, forming the first complete lineup of the band:
They were the first group to play at Rainbow Theatre in London (supporting The Who).
Their first album, Quiver, was completed with help from great sax player Dick Parry. A superb album, it contains killer guitar duels (as in the great ´Killer man´), outstanding bass playing, and tight ryhthm on drums. Another great song is ´Reason for staying´. I wonder why this album is not released on CD!!
Their 2nd album is Gone in the morning, as magnificent as the 1st one. The self titled track, ´Gone in the morning´ is a masterpiece, and I also like ´I might stumble´ a lot.
Soon later, the whole band decided merging in late 1973 with Sutherland Brothers, forming Sutherland Brothers & Quiver, but Cal Batchelor decided to leave.

CAL BATCHELOR BAND
In the 80s, Cal returned to Canada.
His first solo album is Live at the Rock Shop, only available on cassette.
He has been fronting his own Cal Batchelor Band since 1995, approximately. This was the lineup around 1997:
For some gigs, they were joined by sax player Gene Hardie.
There's also a collective album called West coast blues party, vol. I, including two songs (´Someday you're gonna need me´ and ´She can't be trusted´ performed by Cal Batchelor).
His album Now playing is a masterpiece. It was nominated for a Pacific Music Industry Award for ´Best Album´ in 1998. Cal is superb singing and playing guitar, and the band is also great. Superb Hammond work, and some tracks have a guest horn section.
Cal´s next album was Roadworthy.
