Solo Albums
In addition to her solo album Give Me Love,Lyn Paul has recorded vocals for the film soundtrack of The Dove and for the Original London Cast recording of Taboo. Lyn's solo recordings have also appeared on a number of compilation albums. In addition to these official releases, Lyn's appearance on a Cliff Richard TV show is available on a bootleg CD.
Lyn's verdict on the album? "I'm very pleased with it, because it is my first album," she told Ray Fox-Cumming, "Sometimes though, I think that my voice has become secondary to the arrangements and that's a pity because I think it ought to have been more of a singer's album." (Record Mirror, July 1975)
When he reviewed the album, Ray Fox-Cumming wrote: "There's no doubt that Lyn Paul has it in her to be a great performer. She handles any New Seekers material, of course, standing on her head. She can also make a fine job of a sophisticated ballad and growl her way through a savage up-tempo number." He was, however, disappointed by the album: "There's too little of the tigress, too little sophistication ... On only five tracks here does she give of her best. They are: It Oughta Sell A Million, Love, He's Got A Way, Mellow Down and, best of all by far, I Could Get Arrested." (Record Mirror)

In 2005Lyn Paul began recording tracks for a new album with Rod Edwards, the Musical Director from Blood Brothers. The album features two new songs, Clouds and Dance With Desire, and new interpretations of ten old favourites - as Lyn put it in an interview with David Jensen: "some lovely old songs that have been given a new twist." (From The Bottom To The Top, Capital Gold, 20th July 2006)
In an interview for the Daily Post Lyn described the album as "a slit-your-wrists type of album - one very much for the ladies to settle down with a bottle of wine at the end of an evening." (Daily Post, 21st April 2006)
The Key Players

In addition to the Blood Brothers' cast albums of 1988 (with Kiki Dee) and 1995 (with Petula Clark), Rod has produced or played on albums for Gordon Giltrap (Visionary, Perilous Journey and The Peacock Party, among many others), Ralph McTell (Streets), Racing Cars (Downtown Tonight) and Renaissance (Songs From Renaissance Days). In the late '60s and early '70s Rod also released records as a member of the bands Piccadilly Line and Ashman-Reynolds, and as one half of the duo Edwards Hand. Nick Magnus
Nick Magnus is a composer, keyboard player and producer. He co-produced Late Night with Rod Edwards and co-wrote one of the new songs on the album, Clouds. Previous co-productions with Rod Edwards include the acclaimed platinum-selling Pan Pipe Moods albums for Polygram.
Nick started his musical career in early 1976 with the cult symphonic rock ensemble, The Enid. He spent the next two years with the progressive rock band Autumn, before beginning an 11-year working relationship, touring and recording, with ex-Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett.
In the late '80s Nick did session work with a wide variety of artists including: Mike Batt, Cilla Black, Colin Blunstone, Duncan Browne, China Crisis, Classix Nouveaux, David Essex, Richie Havens, Johnny Mars, George Martin, Brian May, Mungo Jerry, Chris Rea, Renaissance and Bonnie Tyler.

Since then Nick has recorded albums with many artists, among them Steve Gibbons (Down In The Bunker, Saints And Sinners and Street Parade), Elton John (Ice On Fire), Nick Lowe (The Rose Of England and Dig My Mood), Gary Moore (Still Got The Blues, After Hours, Blues Alive and Blues For Greeny) and Bill Wyman (Anyway The Wind Blows and Struttin' Our Stuff).
