mulgrave street

With the departure of John Gladwin in 1973, Eddie Baird and Terry Wincott decided to continue The Amazing Blondel due to continued demand for their music and loyalty of the fans. The band continued in business for another five years and four albums until finally killed off by the hideous Punk explosion !! Eddie took up most of the writing of the material and whilst it was still folk based it now had a slightly more commercial bent with an eye to the charts. Mulgrave Street came out in 1975 on vynal but this is THE FIRST EVER RELEASE ON CD. The album achieved critical success even with a new sound and direction. Certain tracks from the album became standards for live performances including "Sad to see you go" and "Love must be the best time of our lives". The Amazing Blondel due to continual touring in the seventies became established in the British live scene with a large fan base and became one of the underground "cult" bands. Their zany and unique sound appealed across the folk scene and since this is album has NEVER BEEN RELEASED ON CD it will be sought out by all Amazing Blondel and folk fans alike. Eddie and Terry are planning to do some gigs later in the year along with a new studio album to launch The Amazing Blondel back on tp an unsuspecting World !!
