Right in the middle of glam rock 1973 came a homely singer song-writer from the small village of Stourport near Birmingham named Clifford T Ward who took the charts by storm with a simple love song, Gaye telling the age old story of a girl & how much she meant to him. This was like a breath of fresh air in the over produced mid 1970s, by its very nature, over glamorous rock scene at the time. For here was a man who told simple stories, with beautiful melodies, played with the minimum of fuss.
