Love these guys...American prog from the 1977 -1990 took a long break..did a new one in 2004....last one.
Peter Gabriel had asked them to be his backing band when he first went solo... they said no..wanted to do their own music.

Happy The Man-'Crafty Hands'

Not quite. It was actually Peter Gabriel who decided against hiring them and not the band themselves. Also, the first iteration of the band was from 73-79.

Yes...I have all the original vinyl except for Beginnings (music from 74-75) which wasnt released at first and came out on cd in 1990....which is the copy I have. Not seen a vinyl one but hear its available . I actually have two copies of both 'Happy' and 'Crafty ' on original vinyl....I see them used and often at low prices so I always pick them up for friends. I also have 'Deaths Crown' and 'Muse' on cd.
I had read an article that they decided to do their own thing...as always it depends on who's doing the writing and telling the story.
Welcome back to the forum.....I guess. ;)

I'm a fan of Greenslade....a somewhat obscure Brit prog band from the 70's .....

'Bedside Manners Are EXtra'- Greenslade
