My Sister's Records, Redux

My sister endured merciless piss-taking from my mates and me over her Rollers fandom, calling their TV show "Shag-A-Slag" and other dazzling bon mots. She mostly just ignored it, treating our opinions with the special disdain reserved for younger brothers and their oik-ish, spotty mates. Not that our tastes were that sophisticated either as we thought Slade and ELO were the pinnacles of Western civilization at the time. But in a very mature moment my friend Graham admitted to her he thought that the track "Eagles Fly" was, you know, actually pretty good. She still wouldn't go out with him though.

So don't hate me until you've heard this record, it's not bad at all with a laid-back, 70s East Coast acoustic rock vibe. They wrote it themselves too, so they weren't just pretty faces. Actually, I thought they were a a plain-looking bunch, and bass guitarist Stuart "Woody" Wood was downright ugly. No wonder on the sleeve above it looks like Les McKeown is trying to hold him down and keep him out of the photo.
