They barely existed as a professional trio before they were auditioned and signed to record an album,
and then didn't last very long. Tucker (vocals, keyboards, arrangements), Eigen (vocals, percussion),
and Hough (vocals, guitar) had come to London at the end of the 1960s in hopes of making it as singers,
and were working at a cafe when they were spotted by an executive from Decca Records.
After an impromptu tryout at their place of employment, they were called in for a formal audition
and, almost immediately, signed to do an album, and placed on the label's new
(and short-lived) progressive rock Nova label, itself an offshoot of the Deram imprint

One of many one-off albums on Deram, this is actually one of the better ones on that label.
The sound is greatly influenced by medieval and renaissance music, but without being purist
or overtly complicated like Gryphon. It's main strength is the nice three-part vocal harmony which
is present in nearly every song. Still, oboes, bassoons and trumpets abide, as do some interesting
string arrangements. Some tracks like Peppermint Store have a definite sixties feel in being good-natured
as well as intriguing. There is also a very strong 'British' flavour in the music. Recommended...(Tapestry of Delights)
