Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Happy the Man is one of the best bands ever formed........1999-09-09

Happy the Man's best album, "Crafty Hands," is nearly impossible to find. The band was one of the most rhythmically innovative groups of the late progressive period of the 70's. They appeared about the same time as the Dixie Dregs, and the two bands had several things in common, though their sounds were totally distinct. Like the Dreg's, Happy the Man's music is interesting, intelligent, rhythmically diverse, very bright, and full of beautiful melodies. It's really a delightful blend of sounds.

Kit Watkins, the band's keyboard player (one of the finest in the world), went on to join the English group "Camel" after Happy the Man disbanded. He then wrote and produced a number of excellent solo albums.
