Gravy Train - A Ballad of a Peacefull Man

Gravy Train was a progressive rock group from Lancashire, England, formed by vocalist and guitarist Norman Barratt in 1969. Also featuring J.D. Hughes (keyboards, vocals, wind), Les Williams (bass, vocals) and Barry Davenport (drums), the band would record four studio albums. The first two were released on the Vertigo label, the remainder by Dawn Records.

(A Ballad of) A Peaceful Man is Gravy Train's second — and probably their most praised — album, released in late 1971. Unlike their heavier debut, this album sports some lovely string arrangements, provided by Nick Harrison.
