about

An album named after the first band I played in during my late teens and early twenties back in the 1970's. The track 'Why can't this be Love' features my old band mate Keith Page on guitar. A number of the songs on the album were written quite a few years ago, which I have rearranged and rerecorded (e.g. Alive, Bad Man World and End of the Line).

There are a lot of brass, sax and strings all over this album, which I guess gives the songs a 70's, 80's signature, but that's my era. Maybe next time I'll do the concept album!

I love the cover photo from Great Bentley Village Fair, which was taken by my wife Sue French.
