Formed by myself and Don Harris in Dublin in the spring of 1973 after I returned from the US and also featuring Jimmy Gibson, Vincent Duffy and later John Brady, the band was an overnight success on the Irish rock scene. Within a year we appeared in Dublin's National Stadium as best new band, with myself and Don winning Best Guitarist and Best Drummer awards in the local New Spotlight polls. Our only album Grinilla is widely recognized as a classic of '70s progressive rock (see Reviews). The original recording has been digitally remastered and well received critically, being compared favorably to Yes and Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Grinilla is now
back in the hands
of the band, our licensing arrangement with Kissing Spell records having expired in late 2005.
We are currently offering a remastered and improved CD package including more previously unheard material plus the 1973 William Tell/Brown Ox single A & B sides.

I will be happy to answer any queries regarding this re-release. The object of the exercise is to provide a quality
alternative to the bootleg versions that are out there [we've taken legal advice on this] and to make the album
available with the best possible sound quality, and with as little as possible of the flaws that may have
detracted from the original production. We have spared no expense or studio hours in this respect,
including analogue/digital transfer and digital mastering using Sonic Solutions and SADiE at SRT.
This is registered copyright material [which has been digitally watermarked] on which the copyright and
publishing rights belong exclusively to Peggy's Leg and any attempt at bootlegging
any of these works will result in immediate legal action.
