Warhorse’s first album was released in November 1970 on the Vertigo “swirl” label. The band had been formed in 1970 around the bass player Nick Simper who was one of the founder members of Deep Purple. He was joined by guitarist Ged Peck and drummer Mac Poole who had both played with Simper in Marsha Hunt’s backing band. On vocals, Ashley Holt was an old friend of Simper’s and had actually auditioned for Deep Purple as early as 1968. Frank Wilson on keyboards completed this line-up.
