The last lineup of The Arrows before the band broke up, summer of 1977. Some of what they recorded at Jon Anderson’s chapel studio in St. Paul Du Vence, South Of France with Bill Wyman producing came out on the band’s Arrows & Friends / Tawny Tracks album. The track “French Cheating Woman” was recorded outdoors in the garden just outside of the chapel. Yes, the band used two drummers!
