referencing Book Early (LP, Album) SRM-1-3737
My copy's matrix runout does not match any other entered issues of this LP, so this is possibly the one I've got. The matrix runout is as follows, side A: "SRM 1-3737 A5 31 15" and side B: "SRM-1-3737 B-C57 MASTERDISK G.K. (stamped) 5".referencing Book Early (LP, Album) 9102 028
There are some excellent tracks on this, their fourth album. "What A Night", "The World Loves A Dancer" and the hit single "5.7.0.5.". Unfairly compared to their contemporaries ELO and the American band Styx, City Boy also enjoyed sophisticated production and arrangements and whilst also pigeon-holed as another "one hit wonder" band on the strength of "5-7-0-5" they wrote some great little tunes. This was probably their final 'pop' outing as by the time the next album came around they were moving firmly into the 'prog' market (that's an excellent album by the way).
"5-7-0-5" also requires a bit of commentary too as the song existed in a previous version as "Turn On To Jesus" but the record company felt that they would encounter problems with airplay if it stayed like that so they asked the band to re-write the lyric and - hey presto! - the band had a hit on their hands.
Incidentally this version of the album is the re-release which featured slightly different cover artwork and the track "What A Night" was added to the end of Side 1 of the LP after it had been released as a single.
