Dave Thorley Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 Hi Guys Just got a 12" studio disc through with 4 tracks on. Dated 1977, it has Billy Griffin on vocals and is very much in the style of 'City Of Angles' LP. Need to know if any or all of these came out as singles or lp tracks. If anyones interested will put up sound files later. 'I can't stand it' 'At Broadway' 'Sad rain' 'Reach for the sky' Thanks Dave
Guest REVILOT Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 HI Dave There was a 1977 single on Columbia called - "I Can Touch the Sky"
Dave Thorley Posted August 7, 2009 Author Posted August 7, 2009 Thanks for that, Just listened to it, to see if it is an alternative title. They cleary sing 'Reach for the sky' and never once sing 'I can touch the sky', so I am guessing it is a different track. Dave

Dave Thorley Posted August 7, 2009 Author Posted August 7, 2009 Cheers, I did a search couldn't find anything. So looks like the tracks were recorded the year before and 'At Broadway' didn't make it to the LP. Thanks Dave
