That was released 1979 and I think went top 5 in the UK. . Dave Edmunds was signed to Swan Song a few years prior...he released an album on Swan Song in 1977. Then Peter Grant had him as the opening act for a Bad Company tour. Swan Song’s imprint was never intended to be all that large. “We just want four or five acts that we could add something to,” Grant declared in a 1974 interview with Melody Maker.

I've heard this as well, I believe in Uncut magazine which is cited here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan_Song_Records Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
