the best of the herd

CD / Jewel Case
Booklet with authoritative and extensive liner notes by respected author and journalist Chris Welch. -Expertly remastered - superb sound.
Among the highlights of this 26-track collection from one o f the Sixties' most appealing bands are 'From The Underworld', 'Paradise Lost' and 'I Don't Want Our Loving To Die' - the elaborate and unusual big chart epics written by legendary hit makers Howard and Blaikley - as well as quirky tunes such as 'Sunshine Cottage' and 'Our Fairy Tale', together with a selection of their best recordings. Led by Peter Frampton, the singer and guitarist hailed as 'The Face Of '68', The Herd was one of the most innovative of the exciting new wave of pop sensations to emerge from the late Sixties, and although they broke up in 1969, fans of the classic British pop and rock scene still fondly remember them. This superb CD collection is a great introduction to this remarkable and legendary 60s group.
