England's Glory - Legendary Lost Album (Reissue) (1994)

A short-lived band but a significant one. They were Peter Perrett's band prior to the formation of The Only Ones. A Dylan obsessive, Perrett had released an acoustic demo in the Spring of 1972. Harry Kakoulli, a talented bass player who later played with Squeeze before recording two albums, completed the line-up together with Jon Newey and David Clarke who'd earlier played in an early seventies acid-rock group, They Bite. This outfit had been a regular attraction at underground clubs and student union gigs during 1970/71 supporting bands like Stone The Crows, T2 and Uriel. Jon Newey, incidentally, went on to work for 'Sounds' and became publisher of Tower Records' 'Top Magazine'.
