Blimey, this brings back a few memories! Remember seeing these guys a couple of times around 1974 and they were excellent on stage, but (as I recall) never quite nailed it on record. Even so, it will be intriguing to hear this again...thank you!
They are very easy to listen and I feel a very underestimated band.
Hope this helps to bring back those gigging days Anon.

I've had the Knife on vinyl since it came out, I love this band.
Thanks so much for their other discs, Grant
Grant you are very welcome to these albums. Enjoy and thanks for your short but appreciative comments also.
Stop by soon.

Thanks a lot for the O band stuff - more vinyl I've got but having difficulty making decent digital versions of. Like Meal Ticket, another band I used to see around London a lot. Same category (ie still got the vinyl, used to watch 'em a lot = Kursaal Flyers, Clancy, Kilburns, Help Yourself). Cheers.
One of the best bands ever to support MAN, another great on was 'Strangeways'. Met O bands drummer a few times in Berlin when I toured as MAN bands Road manager in the early 90s - Pity they are not still playing - great band and good to hear their songs again - just been listening to Within Reach which I managed to get on CD
