about

Back in1987 the already experienced men decided to create something different rather than the norm. As a purely a British Rock Instrumental band they saw it as just a musical project but then after a few gigs the band really started to grow with lots of local gigs, and word soon started to flow that something good was going on!

After a year or so they started to branch out doing festivals and a few Cambridge and London dates, eventually going on to support acts such as Paul Sampson, Uriah Heep, Rory Gallagher! and a few radio plays from Radio one's Tommy Vance's Rock Show!

As fate would have it, a friend of the band knew Rupert Hine, keyboard player from the fix, had organised an A&R man from Chapel Records to come see the quartet perform at the Covent Garden Rock Garden in London, the A&R man liked Euphoria's version of 'Toccata' he basically asked the guys to do an album of classic rock in the same style as 'Toccata' if that turned out well he would of offered a distrubution deal initially! SOME of the guys thought it was a risk and a gamble and wasnt sure if it would pay off in the long run and wanted to carry on as they were, writing originals and gigging. So there it is!

In early 1990 disillusionment set in for Sam the drummer who decided he would vacate the band for pastures new !

The band split in 1990 as a live band but Jazz and Riko carried on writing and recording until 94 so watch this space for some more remixed song updates!

This small window in these musicians lives gave a thorough insight and understanding in music and they still use it to this day to their advantage!

Dedicated to Jazz Ball R.I.P.
