They run in the same orbit as Paul McCartney & Wings, The Beatles, John Lennon & Yoko Ono, Badfinger and Klaatu, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Dixie Dregs, Semisonic, Sea Level, Small Faces and Alan Parsons, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
