Jim Capaldi, Gordon Jackson, Dave Meredith, Luther Grosvenor, and John 'Poli' Palmer - collectively known as the Deep Feeling - came close in 1966 to being the "next big thing" to come out of the West Midlands. As events would have it, the group folded when on the verge of success, leaving behind precious few recordings previously unavailable until now. Sunbeam Records has finally done the group justice by issuing this CD that will help ensure their place in the region's rich rock music history. Deep Feeling evolved from the Worcester group The Hellions whose origins can be traced back to that town's early 1960s beat scene.
A superb Box-Set containing 4xCDs; limited edition of 300 numbered copies; incl. a booklet with the complete tracklisting.

Consisting of four lengthy songs, this debut album was well received by progressive rock fans, but received little public acclaim…
The versatile British combo Byzantium made a run at mainstream success in the front half of the 1970s, releasing a trio of eclectic albums that endeared them to critics, but befuddled both the masses and the band's record label. In retrospect, the group's blend of psychedelia, progressive rock, country-rock, and West Coast pop perhaps predestined the cult status that time eventually bestowed upon them. Featuring a multi-headed staff of talented songwriters and with instrumental prowess to match, Byzantium were a vigorous live band with a strong vocal presence and plenty of technical flair that could be heard in their ambitious arrangements.
