Bound For Glory: Complete Recordings 1976-1979
Four studio albums and a live set from Mick Underwoodâs Strapps
Mick Underwood had already enjoyed a lengthy career, building up an impressive musical resume since joining Ritchie Blackmore in The Outlaws in 1964, before forming Strapps in 1975. With Underwoodâs impressive rock pedigree, including Quatermass, Harvest Records, home of Deep Purple and Pink Floyd, was a perfect fit for the new band. Joined by Australian singer and guitarist Ross Stagg, Joe Reed on bass and Noel Scott on keyboards.
Their second album for Harvest Records, Secret Damage, was released in 1977. Produced by Chris Kinsey (Rolling Stones, Marillion), the album featured the single âChild Of The Cityâ. Produced by Pip Williams (Status Quo), their third album Prisoner Of Your Love was released by Harvest in Japan, where the band had built a loyal following. Strappsâ fourth and final record was 1979âs Ball Of Fire. Strapps were a solid live proposition, so it makes sense that this set is completed by their 1977 live set at the Rainbow Theatre in Londonâs Finsbury Park. Strapps called it a day in 1979 when Underwood accepted an offer from Ian Gillan to join the newly formed band Gillan.
