Middle of the Road are a Scottish pop group who have enjoyed success across Europe and Latin America since the 1970s. Before ABBA established themselves in the mid 70s, Middle of the Road were the sound of early europop with their distinctive harmonies and lead vocals from Sally Carr. Four of their singles sold over one million copies each, and received a gold disc InchChirpy Chirpy Cheep CheepInch. InchSacramentoInch, InchTweedle Dee, Tweedle DumInch and InchSoley SoleyInch. By early 1972 the group had sold over five million records. The band had their first and biggest hit record in the United Kingdom with their debut UK single, InchChirpy Chirpy Cheep CheepInch. The song reached No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart in June 1971 and stayed there for four more weeks. In all, Middle of the Road had five hit singles in the UK in 1971 and 1972. The band had especially strong success in Germany, where they achieved eleven Top 40 hits between 1971 and 1974.

2019 , the second album by The Berries. Over the course of a year, songwriter Matt Berry demoed countless versions of every song that would end up being on Berryland by himself in his room, but the world refused to stay outside during the process. Berryland sounds like a record designed for good times at first glance - from the psychedelic opening riff of InchMakes Me SickInch to the gigantic chorus of lead single InchFruit,Inch there are moments that feel made for driving down the highway with the windows down. But each song on Berryland has a deeper meaning than what's on the surface - a constant theme of heartache, hopelessness and feeling as if the end of the world could be any day now permeates on standout tracks like InchPassing SceneInch and the fast & furious InchFeral Eyes.Inch This seeming contradiction makes The Berries' album feel vital for today's world - an attempt to grasp at good times while living in end times.
