Brand new archival release from this Byrds-inspired UK group! All 20 tracks here except one – “Echoes” which - have never been released or heard before. Here’s the breakdown of the tracks on the CD: 6 previously unreleased songs (5 covers - 3 from the earliest days of the group and 2 favorites from the live sets - plus one original song) and 14 alternate recordings of songs from the group’s two CBS albums. Previously unreleased songs: “To Try ForThe Sun” (Donovan), “Old Compton Street Blues” (Al Stewart), “Echoes” (Gene Clark – this song appeared on the B-side of the very limited edition, 2015 7” vinyl single on Shagrat Records (100 copies - sold out)) and “Sea Comes At Its Edges” (Poole), “When You Walk In The Room” (Jackie DeShannon/Searchers) and “For What It’s Worth” (Buffalo Springfield) are live recordings from a 1974 Capital Radio session. The details on the previously unreleased alternate recordings of songs from the 2 CBS albums “Lady Came From The South” is a very early demo recorded by Steve Hall at his Maplewood Studios - featuring Tony Poole and Ross, with Steve on Bass and Percussion. “Closer To You Now ?” is a track recorded for Southern Music, and features Nick Brown on Drums. “Money Is No Friend Of Mine”, “Going Down”, “Oh What ?”, “Everybody” and “50/50 (Better Stop Now)” are CBS recordings prior to sessions for their first album. “Nobody Home”, “Down The Street”, “Fools’ Gold”, “Thought Talk”, “Don’t Give Me A Hard Time”, “Good Love” and “Flames In The Rain” are studio recordings from various radio sessions. Tony Poole explains “I originally wasn't that keen to have alternate versions of songs from the albums, but while mastering the songs I actually realized I preferred some of them to the album tracks!”
