Spyglass
Guest is their most commercially successful album to date, having
reached number 34 in the UK Albums Chart. It was the final recording
bassist Tony Reeves made with the group, leaving Greenslade shortly
after the LP was completed.
As with their first two albums,
Greenslade prepared for Spyglass Guest by extensively rehearsing at a
church hall in Middlesex. However, whereas half of the songs on their
first albums were written collaboratively, on Spyglass Guest the band
members did not give any input into each other's songs, writing them
individually. Dave Greenslade said he could not say why this was, since
they were all getting along well with each other.
Their recording
efforts were also more individualized: Dave Greenslade did not play on
any of the three Dave Lawson compositions, Tony Reeves was absent from
all but one of them, and Dave Lawson in turn did not play on "Spirit of
the Dance". This was in part because, due to the band being worked so
hard by their management, Dave Greenslade asked Dave Lawson to write a
song to be used as a solo spot for himself, in order to reduce rehearsal
time. Lawson came up with several pieces, with "Red Light" being
selected as his solo spot, but another, "Rainbow", was also put on the
album due to a shortage of material.
