Post Description

One of the most successful British bands of the early '70s, Slade made it to the top of the charts after several years on the road. The band formed in 1966 in Wolverhapton as the In-Betweens. After taking on former Animals bassist Chas Chandler as their manager, they changed their name to Ambrose Slade, then shortened it to Slade.
Around 1967 / 1968 the British band the In-Betweens had built quite a reputation in the Wolverhampton area. They had even played concerts on the continent (Germany and Spain).
With their new name Ambrose Slade, the band's first album presented a couple of coverversion: Marvin Gaye "If This World Were Mine ", The Beatles "Martha My Dear", Steppenwolf " Born To Be Wild " and also Frank Zappa's "Ain't Got No Heart". It's the full Slade line up but in their freak/psych days.
