Simon Dupree & The Big Sound - Kites album flac

Simon Dupree and the Big Sound were a British psychedelic band formed in 1966 by brothers Derek Shulman (vocals), Phil Shulman (vocals, saxophone, trumpet), and Ray Shulman (guitar, violin, trumpet, vocals); also known for their later prog rock band, Gentle Giant. They started as The Howling Wolves and then became The Road Runners, playing R&B around the Portsmouth area, home of the Shulman brothers, becoming Simon Dupree and the Big Sound in early 1966

Kites" is a ballad written by Hal Hackady and Lee Pockriss. It was first recorded by the Rooftop Singers as their last single in 1967. The song then became a hit for Simon Dupree and the Big Sound, the group of the Shulman brothers who went on to form the progressive rock band Gentle Giant. Their first releases had not been successful and they looked to their manager, John King, for inspiration.

Twenty songs recorded by the group between mid-1966 and 1969, including three early singles and seven songs off of the Without Reservations album. Kites" is by far the best known number, and some of the later psychedelic efforts, including the Derek, Phil, and Ray Shulman-composed "She Gave Me the Sun" and the Shulman-Shulman "Thinking About My Life," are entertaining period pieces. But the real meat here is the group's R&B material from 1966 and earlier in 1967 - Derek Shulman was a convincing shouter, and when the group slipped into the right groove,.

This cool tune by the British psychedelic band "Simon Dupree & The Big Sound" was released in 1967 and made it to number 9 in the UK charts, i like a lot of psychedelic music and this has always been one of my favourites so i thought i would upload it for you all to hear, i so love the catchy music to this.
