RUPERT HINE EXCEPTIONALLY RARE 6-SONG DEMO CASSETTE

In 1973, Rupert Hine, along with guitarist Mark Warner, bassist John G. Perry (then of Caravan) and drummer Trevor Morais (formerly of The Peddlers) formed the band Quantum Jump, releasing two albums, Quantum Jump (1976) and Barracuda (1977). After Quantum Jump disbanded, Hine released a trilogy of acclaimed and highly influential albums under his own name. These were: Immunity (1981); Waving Not Drowning (1982); and The Wildest Wish to Fly (1983).

While working with Phil Collins in the London Trident Studios (ca. 1984), Rupert Hine recorded this 6-song demo and handed it to his then-manager Walter O'Brien with the intention of finding a record deal in the U.S. While Hine would continue his stellar career as a producer and a recording artist, this demo was never 'picked-up' by any of the record companies. The end result is that we have an exceptionally rare tape (of great sound quality) that is particularly interesting to fans and collectors of British pop and rock music.
