Created in 1968 by Swiss keyboard player Patrick Moraz, the progressive rock quartet Mainhorse, which also featured the talents of guitarist/violinist/vocalist Peter Lockett, drummer Bryson Graham, and bassist/cellist/vocalist Jean Ristori, released their eponymous lone record on Polydor in 1970. The album failed to garner much success outside of the art rock scene and the group split up, with Graham joining Spooky Tooth and Gary Wright, and Moraz landing a job with Yes and eventually starting a successful solo career. ~ James Christopher Monger
