Best Forgotten Bands of the 70's.

Jason Crest... ring any bells?.... me neither, until I clicked he was in The Four Pennies?
I do have a demo single of Dancing In The Moonlight by High Broom (Top loader,King Harvest, etc..) which had his involvement - but this Kinksish romp I do like.

Jason Crest - Waterloo Road.

John Kelly (The White Album) supplied the photos for this fine but forgotten album, recorded in George Martin's Air Studio... Sadly it failed to set the world alight.

Hokus Poke - Sunrise Sunset (the sunset.)

Strawbs was a brilliant band imo. All of their albums have at the very least a worthwhile song or two, but the albums "Hero and Heroine" and "Ghosts" are their best.
Their guitarist and vocalist Dave Lambert also had a couple of albums of his own which are worthwhile exploring if you're a Strawbs fan.
1970

1979

On theTeledec label-listening via the crystal set.
Six o'clock was the gateway song in times past from this now forgotten German band.

Satin Whale- Perception.

Great short lived band, connections with Family and Spencer Davis Group... Did only two official albums-then pft!
