Family "Fearless" 1971

After completing their second US tour in mid 1971, John Weider left the band and was replaced by John Wetton on bass and vocals . The band's direction was notably changed with Wetton bringing along his trademark propulsive performance style, as evidenced on the album opener "Between Blue and Me". After only a year and one more album, Wetton left to join the latest line-up of King Crimson and was replaced by Jim Cregan. Fearless was the first Family album to chart in the United States, reaching #177 on the Billboard 200 in March 1972, and staying on the charts for 7 weeks. 

Family "A Song For Me" (1970)

“A Song For Me” (1970), disco notable aunque no está a la altura de otras grabaciones del grupo como “Music In A Doll’s House” o “Family Entertainment”. En el álbum, que contó con la baja de Ric Grech (en ese momento en Blind Faith) y Jim King, se puede escuchar el tema “Drowned In Wine”, canción, como casi todas, co-escrita entre el vocalista Chapman y el guitarrista John “Charlie” Witney.
