B J H -- A Celebration of Sound

This show introduces (I don't believe many listeners know this band) a wonderful band from England, Barclay James Harvest. The group was formed in September of 1966 in Oldham, Lancashire. A quartet of solid rock musicians -John Lees guitar, vocals; Les Holroyd, bass, vocals; Stuart "Wooly" Wolstenholme, keyboards, vocals; and Mel Pritchard, drums --with a knack for writing hook-laden songs built on pretty melodies. They followed a similar path to The Moody Blues without the hits. You don't need hits to be a great band.
