Review by Paul Purcell

A Smile Is Diamond, the latest album by A Band Called "O" is a refreshing and uplifting collection of songs that will put a smile on your face. With catchy hooks, upbeat melodies, and thoughtful lyrics, the band delivers a well-crafted and cohesive album that is sure to please their fans and win over new listeners.

The album opens with the title track, "A Smile Is Diamond", a joyful and infectious tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. From there, the band takes us on a musical journey through a range of styles and moods, from the funky "Funky Love" to the soulful "Hold On" and the introspective "Lost in My Thoughts".

Throughout the album, the band's musicianship and songwriting skills are on full display. The arrangements are tight and polished, with each instrument and voice blending seamlessly together to create a rich and full sound. The lyrics are honest and relatable, touching on themes of love, loss, and self-discovery.

I loved this song and played it until I wore the grooves off the vinyl LP. But i thought the rest of the album was terrible. Thanks for posting this lost song!

@indigofruit Just to update any one who may be interested! I'm fortunate enough to be playing with Pix in the band Guiri in Spain but the Guiri Youtube name has changed from Guiri Andalucia to: - Guiri Andaluz

How right you are. It was also a life changer as it set me off on a (brief) career as a pro drummer during the NWOBHM in a band called Taurus. Our one and only vinyl release can be found elsewhere on You Tube.

If there ever was a song that conjured up my recollection of the years as a teenager, then it's this one. Very good album as well. Appreciate their influences in the songs.

First band I ever saw live; Middlesbrough Town Hall, May 1975 supporting Man. I was also there, but in the Crypt that time, for the problematic recording from which the live version of Fine White Wine was the only release. Pix, please try and arrange the release the BBC gig, or maybe today's tech magic could remove the feedback from the Middlesbrough Crypt gig - now there's a thought. Thanks for some great memories guys.

Pix, glad to hear your still going well, used to love going to the Demi for the Sunday night bash. Still got a reel to reel tape somewhere with you playing a song called "Children" and a few other numbers. Hope your hair has lasted better than Mr Anders and mine.

Hi everybody, Pix here...I've just been talking to Derek (the O Band's drummist!) and he told me to check this out... I'm truly knocked out by all the great comments I've read and thank you all for the compliments for 'A Smile is Diamond'.... Just to keep y'all up to date, the band I'm with here in Spain is now called 'Guiri' (a slightly rude Spanish name for foreigners...) and you can also check out the website: 'Guiri Axarquia'... Love 'n peas to everyone....Pixx

Funny to see this here. Am listening to Within Reach right now. It has stayed in the record collection since week of release. Its just a class act. ver the borders Joe Strummer and Malcombe McClaren were about to unleash the apocalypse so these guys were eclipsed. Its a shame, they should have been up there with Dire Straights and The Eagles.
