This isnt an extremely rare recording as such. It was released all around Europe (and indeed Lebanon!) largely on the strength of Lucas Sideras prior stint with Greek rock Gods Aphrodites Child. British copies, on the other hand, are as rare as hens teeth, to the extent that many discographers until recently assumed that this was never officially released over here - so Im a bit bemused about how this one fell into my hands without me really trying. Call it good luck. 

I may be bemused but Im also delighted. The A-side here is actually "One Day", which is a cuddly piece of contemplative, semi-acoustic pop. Its the B-side that really knocks my socks off, though. "Rising Sun" is a shimmering, rattling piece of psychedelic pop with some wonderfully convincing yet simple guitar lines. Fizzing over with optimism and a driving momentum, its wasted by being buried away on the flip, although a longer version did emerge on Lucass debut LP "End of the World".

While he would go on to release other records on the continent, so far as Im aware Polydor didnt try to push him on the British again. His records sold moderately well elsewhere, and he eventually settled into a successful production career, before forming the group Ypsilon in 1977 and the blues rock band Diesel in 1987. He still occasionally records and releases solo material to this day.
