Prog Temple's retrospective analysis of this band's brief, but valid existence emphasizes Chris Stainton's convictions and illustrates the missing links in a vital part of British rock music history. Names such as Joe Cocker, Jim Capaldi, Bryn Haworth, Mike Patto, One In A Million, Spooky Tooth, and The Who offer only a glimpse of the iconic wealth surrounding one man's career and a band that was clearly striving for something more than cheap rewards.
