Released 27/07/2009. Signed to EMI in April 1974, following apprenticeships since 1969 in studios, club bands and even the embryonic Bay City Rollers, consummate musicians David Paton / Billy Lyall / Stuart Tosh expertly meshed catchy tunes, punchy guitars, strong harmonies to score major international success with three albums in three years.

This third album was recorded at Morin Heights in Quebec,Canada in 1976, and this time had Roy Thomas Baker (Queen) producing. Heavier power pop sound and song writing contributions from more band members mark this album as a progression. It still retains the Pilot stamp of quality, and yielded a major hit in the single Penny In My Pocket . Again we have the demo version from David Patons archive, together with three more unreleased songs as bonus tracks.

Hold On / Canada / First After Me / Steps / The Mover / Penny In My Pocket / Lies And Lies / Running Water / Trembling / Maniac / Too Many Hopes / Bonus Tracks - Scorpio (Demo) / Goldmine (Demo) / When The Sun Comes (Demo) / Penny In My Pocket (Demo)
