Line 56:

=="In A Broken Dream"==

Stewart was brought in to sing on the song when Bentley informed his band mates that he didn't think his voice was right for the song. Recorded in London in 1969, "In a Broken Dream" languished until 1972 when it rose to number three in the [[UK Singles Chart]] and #56 in the [[United States|U.S.]] [[Billboard Hot 100]].

Stewart originally only sang 'guide' vocals on this track, and the intention was for another singer to sing the recording 'proper', once Python Lee Jackson recruited another singer. It was felt that Stewart's vocals were so good that the single would be released as it was.

In [[Europe]], the song became something of a classic. It turned up on the [[soundtrack]] of [[film]]s and documentaries (including the acclaimed art house [[film|movie]] ''[[Breaking the Waves]]'') and became the subject of many [[cover version]]s.
