A one-on 'supergroup' that only recorded one album with JOEY MOLLAND OF BADINGER FAME. Interestingly too, was that it was produced by the late FELIX PAPPALARDI of Mountain. When We say Badinger in 1988, Joey did the orig Ive Been Waiting from the NG record. Great version too I might add. Very few people know about this record and if you are a Joey Molland fan would recommend this one, even if only for the above mentioned track, though there are several others that of outstanding merit, Joey's other orig-'Dark Cloud' As for 'After the Pearl', that one (Finally) was acknowleged as 'serious songwriter' by those who tormented Badfinger as washed-out Beatles clones. In fact, Joey still does a lot of material from that album in concert - 'Here Comes Heartache', 'Dreams of Thunder'. So is okay to say that the RAMONES were rip offs of the MC5???????
