Shide & Acorn - Elanor's Song [Under the Tree] 1971
Early in 1970, Mike & Steve Jolliffe formed folk rock group Foehammer. They regularly played at Wilf Pine's "69 Club".
"We played venues like Fishermen's Cottage at Shanklin where Graham Spencer dragged his harmonium along the beach." - Mike Jolliffe
In the summer of 1970 Foehammer journeyed to RCA's Paris Studios to record four songs that were released as two singles. The band's new name, suggested by the recording engineer was Peppermint Snuff of Wight which was shortened to Wight.
Back on the Island 'Wight' became Shide and Acorn. The Jolliffe's concocted a two hour folk operetta Legend of the Dreamstones. Shide and Acorn performed the opus on the Island and at Bedford College, London University and the Marquee supporting Aardvark and the Strawbs.
About to break up Shide and Acorn recorded an album 'Under The Tree' at the Regency Club in Cowes. Only 99 copies were minted. The album much sought after by record collectors. Kissing Spell would release virtually every scrap of Shide and Acorn's material on three CDs mistakenly including material recorded by both Foehammer and Wight as Shide and Acorn.
