RAH Band

British studio project group, masterminded by [url=https://www.discogs.com/artist/93909-Richard-Hewson]Richard A. Hewson[/url] who had started out as arranger, conductor, and multi-instrumentalist in the late 1960s. In 1976 Hewson decided to produce, write, and play on his own records under the name RAH Band, named after his initials. The following year, the instrumental [url=https://www.discogs.com/RAH-Band-The-The-Crunch/master/208998]The Crunch[/url] (1977) on label [l=Good Earth] climbed into the UK Top 10. Three years later [url=https://www.discogs.com/RAH-Band-Falcon-Tokyo-Flyer/master/90875]Falcon[/url] (1980) hit the Top 40 and started a long string of dance hits for the band. Another track, [m=90874] (1985), with vocals by his wife [a=Liz Hewson], gave him a second Top 10 single in the UK. Over the years the band have chalked up seven UK hits and have had records on a myriad of labels including [l=DJM Records], [url=http://www.discogs.com/label/KR+(2)]KR[/url], [l=TMT Records], [l=S.O.U.N.D.
