Brian Cadd & Don Mudie : Show Me The Way

Описание: A rare colour version of the promotional video for the only single by Cadd and Mudie, after they had left Australian band Axiom and just before the start of Cadd's hugely successful solo career as a singer / songwriter. This video originally appeared on the late, lamented Conniptions channel, and appears here courtesy of its owner Chris Keating, who unearthed the clip. NB: this was filmed in colour, and is not colourised at a later time!

"Following the break-up of The Groop, Cadd and Mudie formed Axiom in May 1969 with Glenn Shorrock (ex-The Twilights) on vocals, Doug Lavery (ex-The Valentines) on drums and Chris Stockley (ex-Cam-Pact) on guitar.Cadd and Mudie were the primary songwriters for Axiom including their three hit singles.They signed with EMI and released their debut single "Arkansas Grass" which reached No. 7 in December 1969, followed by "A Little Ray of Sunshine" (although Cadd did not write 'A Little Ray of Sunshine' this song was written by The Groop following the birth of a members daughter, pre Axiom, however the deemed it to be "not rock and roll enough" and allowed Cadd to record) at No. 5 in April 1970.

"Axiom travelled to England and attempted to enter the UK market but had no chart success. Then, relocating to the US, they released their single "My Baby's Gone" in January 1971, this was followed by their second album If Only... in September. However, Axiom had already disbanded by March and Cadd returned to Australia. Shorrock later became the lead singer for Little River Band and Stockley joined The Dingoes.

"Cadd and Mudie, as a duet, released "Show Me the Way" which reached No. 15 in early 1972. Cadd turned to producing other acts and recording solo material on his own Bootleg Records label which was set up under Ron Tudor's Fable Records. "Ginger Man" was the first single from Cadd's self-titled debut album, released in November 1972 on Bootleg Records."
