Their 1977 debut album was one of those records that everyone who heard it thought it was excellent but which nonetheless only got to #135 in USA and didn't chart in UK. Michael Des Barres ex-Silverhead, was on board as singer, former Yes man Tony Kaye on keys, Michael Monarch, was on guitar. He'd played with Steppenwolf and they made a fantastically crunchy noise. Signed to Swansong I think we all thought they'd be huge, but it never happened. A second album the following year made #103 and that was it. Maybe if they'd formed 4 years earlier they'd have been a big hit. Jimmy Page was a fan and Joe Elliott too.
EU Countries: You've heard of Brexit haven't you? If you haven't, I admire your ability to ignore the real world. It means if you live in the EU, you will have to pay VAT on your order to get it delivered. Please don't waste all of our time by ordering if you aren't prepared to pay it and don't send me indignant emails about it - I can't help it, I hate it more than you, believe me and I have told you!! Right?
