Description
David Garrick (29 January 1947 – 28 February 1985), better known by his stage name David Byron, was a British singer and songwriter, best known in the early 1970s as the lead vocalist with the rock band Uriah Heep. Byron possessed a powerful operatic voice and a flamboyant stage presence. Byron got together with guitarist Robin George to form The Byron Band, which was signed to Creole Records and debuted with the single "Every Inch of the Way/Routine" (CR 8). This was followed by the single "Never Say Die/ Tired Eyes", before the release of the 1981 album On the Rocks (CRX 2). However, as with his previous band Rough Diamond, neither critical nor commercial acclaim was forthcoming.
On the Rocks is an album by the Byron Band, taking its name from their singer, British rock vocalist David Byron. Despite featuring Byron and lauded guitarist Robin George the album didn't achieve commercial success.
The original UK vinyl release, on Creole Records, came with a poster of the sleeve's artwork.
