More Info:

Three CD set including The Byron Band's debut album, demos, rehearsals and live recordings. Although David Byron's musical career originated in mid-1960s London, the rock singer born David Garrick, will always be most closely associated with Uriah Heep. Fronting Uriah Heep for ten classic albums, from their '... Very 'Eavy... Very 'Umble' (1970) debut until 'High And Mighty' (1976), Byron released his first solo LP in 1975 with 'Take No Prisoners'. In 1981 David Byron joined forces with Robin George to form The Byron Band. With Robin George on guitars, Mel Collins on saxophone, Bob Jackson on keyboards, Roger Flavelle on bass, John Shearer on drums and The Powder Puffs adding backing vocals, The Byron Band released 'On The Rocks' (CD1), their debut for Creole Records, in 1981. Featuring eight tracks, including the single 'Rebecca', this collection also includes the non-album single 'Every Inch Of The Way', 'Routine', the B-Side of 'Every Inch Of The Way', and 'Tired Eyes', the B-side of 'Rebecca'. CD2 features 13 tracks of writing, home demos in 1982, including 'She Was Good', 'Fool For A Pretty Face' and 'My Kind Of Lady'. CD3 starts with a rehearsal recording from 1981 followed by a rare live show, recorded in Liverpool in 1980. It concludes with 'AngelSong', a lighter track by Robin George recorded in 1985 featuring Charlie Morgan on drums and Pino Palladino on bass, included as a tribute to David Byron. Byron sadly passed away at the age of 38 at his Berkshire home in 1985.
