Hard Meat - "Through a Window" & s/t 1970

Formed by the Birmingham brothers Michael & Steve Dolan, along with drummer Mick Carless, Hard Meat was a British prog/hard rock band active from 1969 to 1971. The trio's debut single was a cover of the Beatles' "Rain" b/w "Burnin' Up Years" on the Island label in 1969.
Followed by two albums released on Warner Bros. in 1970: Hard Meat & Through a Window. Their second single (culled from the latter album) was "The Ballad of Marmalade Emma and Teddy Grimes" based on the lives of two well known Colchester tramps.
Despite tours of Europe and the U.S.A., neither album achieved chart success, and the group disbanded shortly thereafter.
New Zealand band The Human Instinct covered "Burnin' Up Years" on their 1969 debut.
