Born in the mid sixties in Derbyshire, the band that was to become Shape of the Rain spent the next five years playing clubs and venues in the area. Contrary to most of their comtemporaries, their repertoire even in their early days had a heavy emphasis on original material. Despite this fact it took them almost five years to secure the record deal that would enable them to record thei first (and only LP). Unfortunately, a combination of mismanagement, label bankruptcy and let’s face it a musical style that relied on melody rather than the technical pyrotechnics of prog-rock that were becoming the norm at the time led to their debut sinking without a trace.
