The band was started in the late 60s as a Duo by Pauline and Chris Adams, their first LP was released
on the Concord (Dt.Vogue) label in a very small quantitie.
The sound on this was more into harmonie Westcoast Folk-Pop , with the addition of some members,
(special through the violin of Graeme Smith)  the sound changed to progressive Rock - highlighted by the
album : The Machine That Cried.
After this LP the Adams left the band , and Smith leaded the group through two further albums, with a new
lineup. In 1976 when the band split,Smith joined VAN DER GRAAF and was involved on PETER HAMMILLs
Solo LPs too.
