The Sherbs - The Skill - Clear Glacial Blue - VINYL LP

Clear Glacial Blue. Sherbet (aka Highway or The Sherbs) was one of the most successful Australian rock bands of the 1970s. The 'classic line-up' of Daryl Braithwaite on vocals, Tony Mitchell on bass guitar, Garth Porter on keyboards, Alan Sandow on drums, and Clive Shakespeare on guitar provided their teen-oriented pop style. In 1976 Shakespeare left and was soon replaced by Harvey James. Sherbet's biggest singles were InchSummer LoveInch (1975) and InchHowzatInch (1976), both reaching number one in Australia. InchHowzatInch was also a top 5 hit in the United Kingdom. The band was less successful in the United States, where InchHowzatInch peaked at No. 61. As The Sherbs they also reached No. 61 in 1981 with InchI Have the SkillInch. The group disbanded in 1984. Subsequent re-unions have occurred since 1998.The Sherbs' first album The Skill was released in October 1980 and reached the top half of the Billboard 200. It was the first album by the group - under any of their names - to chart in the US. An accompanying single, InchI Have the SkillInch, became the band's second US pop chart hit at No. 61. The Sherbs also appeared on the inaugural AOR-oriented Rock Tracks chart issued by Billboard in March 1981 InchI Have the SkillInch debuted at No. 45. The track peaked at No. 14 - the band's highest position on any US chart, and The Sherbs also received airplay on US album-oriented rock (AOR) radio stations with InchNo Turning BackInch.
