Leo Sayers 1st Band`s (Patches) only Single. David Courtney’s “Living In America” was on the A-side, and Leo and David’s “The Hour Is Love” on the B-side. The session was exciting as rock band The Who were recording next door and added their input to the session.
Things were happening fast. Gerry Sayer became Leo Sayer, his head of curls inspiring David to christen him Leo, after the lion.
Leo had a girlfriend at the time, Janice. They arranged to get married in Brighton. Patches’ single came out on Warner Brothers in the U.K. It wasn’t a sales success but undaunted by this, Adam became Leo’s manager and David and Adam prepared to produce Leo’s first album. They chose Richard Branson’s Manor Studios in Oxford, to start the recording. Patches disbanded, with only Max Chetwynd, guitarist, staying on.
