The Graeme Edge Band-Paradise Ballroom

Graeme Edge is the drummer for The Moody Blues. He is joined on this record with the Gurvitz brothers, Adrian and Paul, who had their own band The Gun in the late 60’s. They also worked with Ginger Baker in his Baker Gurvitz Army. I bought a used copy of this 1977 album in 2018 ,mostly for the cover. I had never listened to it when I bought it and it’s not very good. Being from ’77 some of the songs have a Disco feel to them,and there are also two ballads that are pretty bad. The only song that I thought deserved a second listen was “All Is Fair” which has a memorable chorus and features Adrian Gurvitz’s guitar. Another one for the reject pile but I might keep it for the artwork.
