Born from a chance meeting with manager Tony Hall outside an Aretha Franklin show, the group originally hailed from Liverpool when from 1965 onwards they had built a large following as a harmony boy/girl fourpiece specialising in Motown on the live circuit.
Arrival recorded mainly their own material for their albums and augmented their sound for recording with session musicians. With two major international hit singles ‘Friends’ and ‘I Will Survive’ resulted and are featured on this package. Also included are non LP tracks and unreleased recordings from their 1970-1973 existence.  Remastered from original tapes.
The collection is produced with major input from members Frank Collins and Dyan Birch, including new interviews and photos from their archives. Group members went on to form the critical favourites Kokomo.
