A Foot in Coldwater - Canadian Hard Rock


A Foot in Coldwater is a Canadian rock band composed of Alex Machin (vocals), Bob Horne (keyboard), Paul Naumann (guitar), Danny Taylor (drums), and Hughie Leggat (bass and vocals). They are best known for the song "(Make Me Do) Anything You Want" which was a Canadian hit single in 1972 and again in 1974.  Foot in Coldwater was formed in Toronto in 1970 from three bands. Leggat, Taylor, and Horne had been members of Nucleus, and the Lords of London. Machin and Naumann were in the band Island. Together, they signed with Frank Davies of Daffodil Records, who coined the group's name. The band's first album, A Foot in Coldwater, was released in 1972 with their first single "(Make Me Do) Anything You Want" which reached the top 25 on the Canadian charts. In 1973, they released their second album The Second Foot in Coldwater which included moderately successful singles "(Isn’t Love Unkind) In My Life" (#34) and "Love is Coming" (#27). In 1974, the band released a third album, All Around Us, which included a shorter version of "(Make Me Do) Anything You Want" which again made the Canadian singles chart. The song was later covered by the heavy metal band Helix in 1984.[1] It is described as "a sleepy ballad" by AllMusic. The band released one more single, "Midnight Lady" before Daffodil Records filed for bankruptcy in 1975, leaving them without a label. Horne left the group and the remaining members recorded a single, "Breaking Through" for Anthem in 1977, but it was not a success and the band folded.

Segue o primeiro discão, que adoro e já ouvi muitas e muitas vezes:




E graças ao suporte e atenção do Blog Only Good Song, disponibilizamos os dois álbuns que completam a discografia do "A Foot in Coldwater".

Segundo OGS:
"Ao contrário que diz a resenha (que só consegui ler colando no google translate kkkk) os 4 integrantes remanescentes ainda autoproduziram + 1 LP (e não um single como escrito) que nunca foi relançado em CD."
