The band’s debut album, WALLY, issued in 1974, was produced by Rick Wakeman and Bob Harris and featured excellent material, including the epic ‘To the Urban Man’. Its release led to the band developing a loyal following on the live circuit assisted by extensive touring in Europe and the USA. Prior to the recording of Wally’s next album keyboard player Paul Gerrett departed and he was replaced by Nick Glennie-Smith. This change in line-up saw the band move further in a progressive direction for the album VALLEY GARDENS, issued in 1975. The album was dominated by the excellent side-long piece ‘The Reason Why’ and also included the track ‘Nez Perc’e’ which was issued as a single and gained some considerable airplay.
