"Tranquility" (UK Pop-Rock, Folk-Rock 1972)
The band was formed in 1971 by Ashley Kozak, formerly Donovan's manager, and built around the song writing abilities of Terry Shaddick. Kozak had long wished for a "...gentle tranquil band that could create its own hybrid of pop, rock and English folk music" (CBS Inner Sleeve Issue III, 1973), and in Shaddick, he saw the focal point for creation of just such a band.
The LP was released in the UK with an extra two tracks, "Black Currant Betty", and a snippet of "Saying Goodbye" played backwards as an introduction to "Try Again". To promote the album, the single "Thank You" / "Saying Goodbye" was released with a production credit of 1971, despite being issued in early 1972. This was followed up in late 1972 by a special single re-recording of "Saying Goodbye", coupled with "Happy Is the Man".

Silver has been re-uploaded at http://rapidshare.de/files/36843450/Silver.rar and is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
But now the original "Tranquility album" doesn't work anymore...Rapid share doesn't work properly.
Could you please reload it again.
Thankyou!
Sorry, i got it to work...rapidshare must have been busy.
Please ignore my last message.
Congratulation for your great & Competent work.
Can you please re-post Tranquility?
Thanks again and all the best!
Can you please repost the original tranquility?
Wow! What can I say; the chorus of silver (who do I turn to now?) has been echoing in my head since hearing it on the Clarkson College FM station in 72 (Potsdam, New York). I thought there was no hope of ever recovering the whole song. Thanks for closing that little door in my mind....WaW...
Thanks for giving me the wonderful sound of tranquility again, MW
Our high school choir did the title track "Silver" in 1974, backing a local band whose members were in the choir. The lyrics stuck with me, and I've hunted for it on CD for years now, to no avail. Thanks for making it available.
