Gavin and Iain Sutherland formed originally in London in 1970, but they only found success when they fused together with another band, Quiver, that they started to enjoy chart success. Quiver consisted of Tim Renwick, Bruce Thomas and Willie Wilson. When they released 'Arms of Mary' in the Summer of 1976, they enjoyed a number 5 hit in the UK and a number 1 hit in the Netherlands. They were just enjoying this success when the punk music explosion happened. They ended up being ousted from their residency at London's Marquee Club to make way for bands like the Damned and X-Ray Spex. By the end of the Seventies, the band split up.My collection: 7" single no. 3372
