Vinyl Relics - EPYSODE 21: "Beginning From An End" by Fair Weather

Guest: Andy Fairweather-Low. When you're in a band that has had a string of smash hits, it's not easy to walk away. But that's exactly what Andy Fairweather-Low did when he said goodbye to Amen Corner, who were at the peak of their game scoring a #1 and several other top 10 hits. Andy wanted to move from just singing to playing guitar and he wanted to write more of his own material. So from the end of Amen Corner came the beginning of Fair Weather. They released two albums in the early 70's taking in influences from American Soul combined with the English psych and prog sounds they were surrounded by. Andy of course went on to a very successful career with solo albums and working on a host of amazing projects as a sideman for the stars. And he's still going, still releasing great music.
