Tremendous vocalist in Annie Haslam, but the group never got respect in the sales department. Just now
seeing that the group was founded by ex-Yardbird members Keith Relf and Jim McCarty. They departed after
two albums but the group carried on. This is their eighth album and got them their first top 10 hit in the
UK, with my only love track here, Northern Lights. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra provides the beef
here. I guess the classical feel is what made me a fan. Not often you got that mix back then. Punk was in
it's embryonic stage round this time and would soon sweep music like this to the curb. This is the last
album I have by the band but they hung in there for three more never cracking the market. This was their
highest charting album in the UK at #35 with a #58 in the states.
