Early - May 1973

So far, the band had released five number-one singles, which could hardly be called a failure. Cherry Beat's first album had reached number-five in late 1971, and stayed there for three consecutive weeks. Sadly their second album Show Business released in 1972 only reached number-twenty-five for one week before it fell off the charts.

Cherry Beat's second album by far reached the most negative critical response out of all their albums. Their critics scolded them for covering popular songs by other artists for their albums without bothering to make sure that all the songs they covered fitted comfortably together on their records.

Indeed the band had chosen a diverse selection of covers for their second album. 1950's rock and roll songs 'Peggy Sue', 'The Girl Can't Help It', and 'Clarabella'. 1970's hard rock songs 'Immigrant Song', and 'Smoke on the Water'. And a 1970's jazz and soul composition 'The Candy Man'.

One critic was reported to have said 'Songs like 'The Candy Man', 'Immigrant Song', and 'Peggy Sue', don't belong together on the same album, not with rock ballads like 'The Ballad of Louise Starker''. The critical response of their second album eventually pressured the band into splitting up, but their music supervisor and producer Chudley Maron insisted that they wouldn't put the breaks on yet.

'Take a break from recording professionally, and wait at least ten months before you resume recording subsequent albums and singles' he'd say 'I personally don't think you need to be releasing covers on your records, you've proven that you're capable of writing your own songs, look at how many number-one singles you've already got!'

Chudley's words certainly helped to boost the band's confidence. They took his advice and waited at least ten months before they would start recording tracks for their next album. They would jam together on numerous occasions, but let their professional careers rest in the meantime.

16th May 1973

This was the band's first official recording session for their third album. The band members of Cherry Beat would still record covers, but they were confident that they would not need to release any more covers on their albums. Between June 1972 and May 1973, the band had written enough songs to make at least one album and two singles. Chudley Maron wrote a couple of songs and offered them to the band to record, but the members of the band, particularly Peter and Sam firmly said 'We're not recording those songs for our next album, but we'll consider recording them for our fourth album instead'.

On this day the band recorded two original compositions. Both of them were rock and roll styled songs, as they were continuing to write and record songs in their rock and roll vein, although they often experimented with blues-rock, hard rock, power pop, and boogie rock. 'Nips of Pity' and 'Squeeze Me Nice' were both rock and roll songs written solely by Peter McDonald. Both songs would make the band's third album.

4th June 1973

The band members were in the studio again recording two more original rock and roll compositions. 'Tunnel Walk' had been written solely by Sam Whitby, while what would subsequently become known as 'Dark Power' had been written solely by Peter McDonald.

The band would later be forced to rerecord the second of the two songs, and dispose of the original recording, upon discovering that the original title of the song had a meaning that may have taken offence, had it been released. To avoid offence, the track was rerecorded under the new title 'Dark Power'.

Peter McDonald said that he never intended to write a song with such a title. It was supposed to mean independence while being in the dark as opposed to independence in the light.

'Rock and Roll Theme' had originally been considered as a B-Side to 'Shake, Rattle and Die', but since 'Shake Those Hips' was omitted from the final pressing of the band's third album, it was released as the B-Side instead.

'Jeanie-Lee' was primarily written by Torquil Dohrn, with input from Peter McDonald. This made 'Jeanie-Lee' the first recorded Torquil Dohrn composition to be commercially released, although the first Dohrn composed song to appear on Still In Business was 'How Could You?'.

5th August 1973

The band members were in the studio again recording two more original compositions. 'Beethoven Bounce' was a sole composition by Sam Whitby, written in the boogie rock style that the band was currently influenced by. But like most tracks the band were recording at this time, it had mixed rock and roll flavours.

'Bellaroy' was written primarily by Sam Whitby, with input from Peter McDonald. However the band's drummer Devon O'Connell had been complaining that the other band members weren't giving him enough opportunity to sing lead, harmony, or backing vocals on the band's records. Torquil Dohrn was sympathetic, and so in addition to singing harmony on songs written or cowritten by Torquil, he was able to persuade Peter and Sam to let Devon sing lead on 'Bellaroy'.

Although the band was largely recording their own material at this time, the band members would still occasionally record cover versions of rock and roll songs when business was slow.

On this day, session musicians Ricky Stanbery, Shaun Galloway, and Antony Newcomb respectively add tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, and cowbell overdubs to 'Sweet Little Sixteen'. A mix without these overdubs was released on the Cherry Beat compilation album Rock and Roll Covers, 1971 in 1988.

The band would also record a cover of Chuck Berry's song 'You Can't Catch Me' on this day, with Sam Whitby on lead vocals.

27th September 1973

The band members were in the studio again, recording a cover version of The Beatles' song 'Thank You Girl', featuring Peter McDonald on lead vocals.

As Peter described it 'We were 70's rock musicians rooted with 50's style rock and roll, therefore we were inspired by a lot of rock and roll musicians of the 50's and 60's. And of course, as members of a boy band of rock music, how could we not be inspired by artists like The Beatles?'

Sam Whitby said 'The Beatles' original version of the song featured John Lennon on lead vocals, and although we can all reach the notes of John's high baritone range, none of us sound remotely, or otherwise similar to him, although I am capable of producing a rough edged vocal with a slight rasp to it. Out of all the members of Cherry Beat, Peter is probably the one that sounds the most like a Beatle, although he sounds most like Paul McCartney, but Paul did sing harmony on The Beatles' version of the song'.

Peter said 'I personally think my vocal on our version of 'Thank You Girl' sounds more or less similar to Paul's vocal on 'Can't Buy Me Love'. Indeed I've got to say that my vocal sounds more like Paul's than like John's both in general, and range-wise. Both me and Sam are mid-range tenors much like Paul, rather than high baritones like John. There are some high tenor notes that Sam can reach that I cannot although he has proven to be capable at reaching all my lower notes as well'.

The band members were in the studio again recording two more original compositions. 'Cocoa Star Rookies' was written mostly by Sam Whitby, but both he and Peter McDonald have pointed out that Peter did help with a few of the lyrics, and some of the music.

The second composition they recorded on this day was written solely by Sam Whitby. 'Sweet Amber, Sweet' was inspired by Amber Stark who was Sam's girlfriend at the time. 'Cocoa Star Rookies' was released as the band's next single after 'Shake, Rattle and Die', with 'Sweet Amber, Sweet' as the B-Side.
