About Us

Had this album in the 70's. Ian Lloyd and Robert Plant are two of my favorites.

No one ever mentions Michael Brown's unique way of putting together a band or choosing band members.Listen to them all-Left Banke, Stories, Montage, Beckies. There is similarity in all the music, but also in the singers that he chooses. I read a review here that said that The Beckies were had by a fat singer with glasses. maybe, but Scott Trusty had the vocal quality that Michael wanted. Go back for a listen and check this out.Of course all Brown's projects are excellent.

"ABOUT US" BY STORIES TRACK LISTING :SIDE 1:(1) DARLING(2) DON'T EVER LET ME DOWN(3) LOVE IS IN MOTION(4) HEY FRANCE(5) PLEASE , PLEASESIDE 2:(1) CHANGES HAVE BEGUN(2) CIRCLES(3) BELIEVE ME(4) WORDS(5) TOP OF THE CITY(6) DOWN TIME BLOOZE(7) WHAT COMES AFTER(8) BROTHER LOUIEThis is the album that contained the hit song "BROTHER LOUIE" , which was NOT initially on the first issues of the album and was put on it as an afterthought. This album is apparently NOT ON CD but is on a 2 for 1 ("STORIES / ABOUT US" )."BROTHER LOUIE" broke the group up as the song went to # 1 !! and the group did want to go into that direction.NOTE: " BROTHER LOUIE" is the LAST SONG on side 2 !!
