REPOST Request:  Going to combine the Curved Air related band to the old Stretch post.  Per Discogs:  With lead singer Elmer Gantry of Velvet Opera fame and former Curved Air guitarist Kirby forming a dynamic front line, Stretch was always a band with great power and potential. They were one of the hottest ‘live circuit’ bands born out of the fury of the 1970s rock scene. Armed with powerful songs and fronted by top class performers, Stretch epitomized the best of the UK’s touring and recording outfits in an era when great ‘live’ rock ruled. They released a succession of fine albums that helped launch their career, but one of their great strengths were their ‘live’ shows, and where better to showcase their talents than at the BBC, recorded by some of the world’s finest engineers? These performances were part of respected BBC DJ John Peel’s sessions. The ‘behind-the-scenes’ reminiscences are recounted in the comprehensive CD liner notes by Stretch biographer Campbell Devine, which includes new interviews with original band members Elmer and Kirby.

Curved Air is a British, progressive rock band, formed in 1970 and still active today.
