Slik (album)

Slik is the title of the debut album by the British pop band of the same name, released in May 1976 on Bell records.

Despite having had a no.1 single Forever and Ever early in the year, the follow-up Requiem was less successful reaching no.24. Both tracks are included on the album.

Likewise, the album was not a commercial success, failing to reach the Top 40 in the UK, their 'Bay City Roller' type image being already rather outdated and to some extent made redundant by the emerging punk rock scene. The group had effectively disbanded by the end of the year making Slik their first and only album.

It was re-released on Cherry Red in 2007 with added bonus tracks.
