Proof, if proof were needed, that mega-talent doesn't guarantee mega-fame and vice-versa! This is an almost perfect pop song and now largely forgotten but not by us!
Saw them in France in Annecy, first set just before Roxy Music.It was GREAT and FANTASTIC....They sang two times by request of the public.Never saw anything like this after......with Phil Spalding on bass Ian BROUDIE on guitar and the drummer who joined Status Quo after.
Uttlerly brilliant!!! I have no idea why they weren't MASSIVE!! They did two albums I think. The first one is a total classic. Not a single duff tune.
Ace Band !! Never received the recognition they deserved to my mind. helped keep me sane working on the rigs back then, something good to listen to after work, no computers, DVD's or CD's back then!!
Ian Broudie went on to form The Lightning Seeds...
I had this on vinyl in the 80s and after losing all my vinyl in a fire, was relieved when the "best of" cd came out a few years ago and I could finally hear it again!
I saw Original Mirrors at the Marquee Club in about '79-'80. I remember this song because of the 'boys" chorus, which was so common at the time. They were cute.
very good!!!
