........Not as good or polished as "Round The Back". John G. Perry played bass and was a vocalist with the great Canterbury Rock group, Caravan. Geoff Richardson played viola and flute with the same band. The late Peter Veitch played with the Penguin Cafe Orchestra. Michael Ogletree played with Simple Minds, and Fiction Factory. Rupert Hine was one of the most successful producers of the synth-pop era. He also produced some work for the great progressive rock band, Camel, and the Thompson Twins. There is no need to elaborate on Phil Collins' achievements. As you can work out from reading this article, Cafe Jacques' had a "motley crew" working on this album, and it's an excellent jazz pop album with ten well written and brilliantly played songs. There is a definite edge of Canterbury Rock here. At times the sounds of Camel, Caravan, and even Steely Dan can be heard here along with many more influences. Cafe Jacques released two albums on Epic, and although both albums were strong and full of excellent songs, neither sold well and the group disbanded. "Round The Back" is a forgotten gem.
