RARE BEAT - GARAGE ROCK AND PSYCHEDELIC
THE AMEN CORNER
Records are not for sale - For your viewing pleasure only

The band was named after The Amen Corner, a weekly disc spin at the Victoria Ballroom in Cardiff, Wales, where every Sunday night Dr. Rock would play the best soul music from the United States. Initially they specialised in a blues and jazz-orientated style, but were steered by their record labels into more commercial pastures. Their first singles and album appeared on Decca's subsidiary label Deram, but they left at the end of 1968 to join Immediate, where they were instantly rewarded with a No. 1, "(If Paradise Is) Half as Nice" (originally a song by Italian songwriter Lucio Battisti) in early 1969. The band also appeared as themselves in the 1969 horror film, Scream and Scream Again. After recording a rather premature cover version of The Beatles' "Get Back", they disbanded at the end of 1969. Vocalist Andy Fairweather Low, led Dennis Bryon, Blue Weaver, Clive Taylor and Neil Jones formed a new band, Fair Weather. They recorded one album and disbanded a year later. Fairweather Low went on to a successful solo career in the 1970s. He became a regular player with Eric Clapton, George Harrison and Roger Waters. He also worked with Strawbs and the Bee Gees.
