Tapestry of Delights:
A pop group best remembered for their No 1 hit Yellow River, a song originally written for The Tremeloes (who featured Mike Blakely's brother Alan). When The Tremeloes procrastinated Jeff Christie, who'd written the song, decided to record it himself and the rest is history. Christie had evolved out of The Epics and Jeff Christie himself had earlier been in several bands including The Outer Limits. Mike Blakely had been in The Blossoms. San Bernadino, another highly commercial song, gave them another Top Ten hit, but after one further minor hit Iron Horse, they faded from from the spotlight.
Their 45s Man Of Many Faces, Magic Highway and Peace Lovin' Man were all taken from their second album, For All Mankind. Aside from the title track, which has been described as outstanding, other strong tracks are Picture Painter and Martian King.
By the time of the Iron Horse 45 was released, Christie had expanded to a foursome with Len Lumin as the new member. After they disbanded, Jeff Christie released two solo 45s: Both Ends Of The Rainbow and Tightrope. ~ (Vernon Joynson / Ray Chan)
