Hey! cover
Released

The Glitter Band’s remarkable story, where a live backing band for Gary Glitter himself ended up not only being its own entity but starting to score bigger hits than him at one point, makes for its own bit of rock and roll legend, and in retrospect that split turned out to be a pretty good thing for the group. With Mike Leander’s sonic skills to hand for them, their debut album Hey! balances out songs from their days as a general covers band with a slew of originals like the hit singles “Angel Face” and “Just For You” that made them part of UK glam rock history.
