Tapestry of Delights:
This outfit could never really get established in this country and its last two releases were German-only affairs. McCracken and Wilson had previously been in Taste (and Wilson had also been in Them). Cregan had cut his rock teeth in Blossom Toes and Julian Covey and The Machine. John Weider joined from Family after the first album had been recorded.
Jazz was a major musical influence on the band whose first album was released to enthusiastic critical acclaim. Like so many albums of this type the playing was good but the material and vocals were very average. They had a large German following though, largely 'cos they toured there regularly, and after their manager Eddie Kennedy had rowed with Deram, it was the German-based BASF label who released their next album. Again, despite some fine playing, the material and vocals were weak. Soon after the release of their third album Cregan left to join Family, Weider teamed up with Keith West in Moonrider and McCracken ended up in the reformed Spencer Davis Group. Wilson tried to keep the band alive with new line-up, which included former East Of Eden member Andrew Sneddon, but the iron was no longer hot for them and they quickly fizzled out.
