I remember first listening to this band back in 1975 their hit then was "Pick Up The Pieces". At first I thought it was James Brown only to find out it was a self contained band from Scotland. In those days it was a pleasure to listen to bands who could play it live as well as in the studio. I lived in a small city at the time on the east coast with a venue just as small so not every top group came to town. Fortunately there were show's on TV such as In Concert and The Midnight Special that brought live music of top bands into my home. AWB was one of them. Even though the band is down to two original members I still can listen to them all night.

Amazing...."A Love of Your Own" has the sounds of the Stylistics all over it.....it was a stroke of genius to have Russell Thompkins jr, lead singer of Stylistics, as guest to sing it with Brent Carter and AWB decades later. His falsetto killed it. Just like Hamish did. I love Cloudy, Person to Person.....and the slow, soul sounds. And I'm 78. .....loving it! 🎶🎸🎷🎶
