Insight
By 1972 Chilliwack was a trio recording at home. Claire Lawrence had left, Glenn Miller was back on bass, and Bill Henderson, Ross Turney and Miller cut their third album, All Over You, at Can-Base Studios in Vancouver. Henderson and Turney produced it, with the studio's chief engineer, Mike Flicker, at the board. Three years later Flicker signed Heart and produced their debut album, Dreamboat Annie.
All Over You followed the sprawling 1971 double LP with eleven songs, most of them around three minutes. It was released in December 1972 and reached #40 on the Canadian album chart.
'Groundhog' is the old Appalachian hunting song, credited on the label as arranged and adapted by Henderson and Turney. It reached #41 in RPM. The B-side, 'Me & You', is a Henderson/Turney original from the same album.
Both labels carry the MAPL logo, the Canadian content mark that arrived with the CRTC radio quotas in 1971. This copy is the white-label radio promo, marked not for sale.
