Tapestry of Delights:
This Birmingham band were managed by Barry Class and their catchy debut 45, The Muffin Man, was an adaptation of a children's nursery rhyme. Its flipside, Peter's Birthday, was marginally better due to the fairground organ, which gave an additional dimension and prevented it being just another mundane pop single. Sadly this is just what their next two 'A' sides - King Croesus and Willow's Harp were. Still their finest moment was tucked away on the flip to their final 45:- Indian-flavoured Like A Tear with its delightful whispered vocal backed by an acoustic guitar and gentle tabla.
Their album was rather disappointing - too whimpy and juvenile.
David Kubinec went on to record solo material in the late seventies. He'd earlier been in Pieces Of Mind. Tony Clarkson had been in Nicky James Movement and Zeus.
