 Following a single release that failed to generate interest, the debut album by the Iveys was all but cancelled. It limped into several European territories and collected dust. Undeterred, the band switched out a member and changed its name to Badfinger and went back into the studio. Seven of the songs on this album found their way onto the Badfinger debut, "Magic Christian Music,” released at the end of 1969. This is the remastered album issued in 1992 by Capitol Records in the U.S. 01 - See-Saw, Granpa02 - Beautiful And Blue03 - Dear Angie04 - Think About The Good Times05 - Yesterday Ain't Coming Back06 - Fisherman07 - Maybe Tomorrow08 - Sali Bloo09 - Angelique10 - I'm In Love11 - They're Knocking Down Our Home12 - I've Been Waiting13 - No Escaping Your Love14 - Mrs Jones15 - And Her Daddy's A Millionaire16 - Looking For My BabyLINK |

 Slade are an English rock band. The British Hit Singles & Albums stated that they were the top UK group of the 1970s. They were the first act to have three singles enter at #1, and all six of the Wolverhampton band's chart-toppers were penned by Noddy Holder and Jim Lea. Total UK sales were 6,520,171, and their best selling single, "Merry Xmas Everybody", sold more than 1 million copies worldwide.The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Music commented that with Holder's powerful vocals and guitarist Dave Hill's equally arresting dress sense, Slade were one of the most successful British chart bands of the 1970s, scoring seventeen consecutive Top 20 hits. They are well known for the deliberate misspelling of their song titles, and for the song "Merry Xmas Everybody" (first released in December 1973), now one of the most iconic Christmas pop songs in the United Kingdom. 01 - The Raven02 - See You Here See Us There03 - Do You Want Me04 - Gospell According To Rasputin05 - Dirty Joker06 - Man Who Speaks Evil07 - Get Down And Get It With It08 - In Like A Shot From My Gun09 - Done Me Wrong Alright10 - My Like Is Natural11 - Take Me Back Home12 - Look What You Dun13 - Darling Be Home Soon14 - Keep On Rockin'15 - Move Over Baby16 - Mama Weer All Crazee Now17 - Nights In White Satin18 - Getting Better19 - Omana20 - Wild Winds Are Blowin'21 - Sweet Box22 - Coming Home23 - Shapes Of Things To ComeLINK |
 Orpheus is a Worcester, Massachusetts-based rock band that enjoyed popularity in the 1960s and early 1970s. In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in the avant guard band. Original members included guitarist/vocalists Bruce Arnold and Jack McKennes, bass guitarist Eric "The Snake" Gulliksen, and drummer Harry Sandler but many others have since been a part of the group. Orpheus recorded three albums and four singles for MGM Records produced by musical legend Alan Lorber, including their best known hit, Can’t Find The Time, though it was later work that came to actually define the band.This debut album and a single "Can’t Find The Time" were released in January 1968, and the group played a few small clubs in Chicago, Detroit, and Philadelphia, before making their official debut in late February of that year at the Bitter End in Greenwich Village. Shortly after, the group opened for Cream at a concert at Brandeis University. The group followed the success of their first album with the release of Ascending in 1968 and Joyful in the early spring of 1969.01 - I've Never Seen Love Like This02 - Lesley's World03 - Congress Alley04 - Music Machine05 - Door Knob06 - I'll Stay With You07 - I Can't Find The Time To Tell You08 - Never In My Life09 - The DreamLINK |
 Bakerloo (previously The Bakerloo Blues Line) was an English heavy blues-rock trio, established by Staffordshire guitarist David "Clem" Clempson, Terry Poole and others in the late 1960s, at the high point of the influence of The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Cream. Although the group was prominent only for around a year (1968-9) and released only one album it played an important part in the history of the genre, especially in view of its members' subsequent involvement with Colosseum, Humble Pie, May Blitz, Graham Bond, Vinegar Joe, Judas Priest and Uriah Heep. The album Bakerloo was further promoted by the inclusion of the long, heavy slow blues "This Worried Feeling" on the Harvest double sampler album Picnic - A Breath of Fresh Air and by BBC recordings for radio. The album was produced by Gus Dudgeon. Last Blues was a heavy rocker, Son of Moonshine a driving metal blues. Other tracks contained "progressive" classical and jazz elements.01 - Big Bear Ffolly02 - Bring It On Home03 - Drivin Bachwards04 - Last Blues05 - Gang Bang06 - This Worried Feeling07 - Son Of Moonshine08 - Once Upon A Time09 - This Worried Feeling IiLINK |
 Twice as Much was composed of David Skinner and Andrew Rose and were harmony singers who also wrote much of their own material. They were signed to Immediate Records, which was run by The Rolling Stones manager, Andrew Loog Oldham. The pair recorded four singles ("Sittin' on a Fence" b/w "Baby I Want You"; "Step Out of Line" / "Simplified"; "True Story" / "You're So Good For Me"; "Crystal Ball" / "Why Can't They All Go And Leave Me Alone") and two albums, Own Up and That's All (featuring Vashti Bunyan) between 1966 and 1968 for Immediate. Most of these recordings were pop in the Peter and Gordon/Chad and Jeremy mold, with light orchestral pop/rock arrangements, that sometimes employed a touch of the baroque. Their only UK Top 40 success was a cover of the Mick Jagger and Keith Richards composition "Sittin' on a Fence" (1966). The Stones released it a year later.01 - Sitting On A Fence02 - Hey Girl03 - Listen04 - You're So Good To Me05 - Green Circles06 - Life Is But Nothing-Happy Times-Do You Wanna Dance07 - True Story08 - Simplified09 - Step Out Of Line10 - You'll Never Get To Heaven11 - Crystal Ball12 - Coldest Night Of The YearLINK |
