Middle Of The Road


Scottish quartet Middle Of The Road formed in 1970 - they had previously been known as both Los Caracas and Part Four - and cut five UK hits in a little over 12 months, including a Number 1 hit with the beautifully baffling Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep in 1971. 

The third of their hits, which reached the UK Top Five, was Soley Soley.

Vocalist Sally Carr (real name Sarah Cecilia Carr) was undoubtedly the Baby Spice of the early 70s popscene and quite possibly the reason the term "MILF" was invented!

The band re-formed in the 90s for live work in Europe, predominantly in Germany. Bizarrely, original guitarist Ian McCredie left the group to set up a rival version of the band featuring his son and daughter-in-law.
