Anthology

Pilot was a pop rock musical group, formed during 1973 in Edinburgh, Scotland by the former Bay City Rollers members, David Paton and Billy Lyall. Joined by Stuart Tosh and Ian Bairnson, the band recorded several demos during 1973 and 1974. They were signed to a management contract with Nick Heath and Tim Heath, sons of British bandleader Ted Heath, and John Cavanagh. In due course they signed to a worldwide recording deal with EMI Records. The 1974 single 'Magic' from their first album, produced by Alan Parsons and written by Paton,[1] was a #11 UK and #5 U.S. success. It sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc by the R.I.A.A. in August 1975.[2] The song 'January' gave them their greatest success in the UK, securing the number one spot in the UK Singles Chart in January 1975. However, the group failed to make the Top 30 again.[1] The arranger of 'January', Andrew Powell went on to record Kate Bush, and both Paton and Bairnson played on her debut album, The Kick Inside, which included 'Wuthering Heights'.[3] The band's other singles chart successes were 'Call Me Round' and 'Just a Smile' (both 1975).[4] By the time 1977 came around only Paton and Bairnson were left from the original foursome, and they recorded Pilot's final album (entitled Two's a Crowd) alone. By 1978, all of Pilot's members had begun other projects, notably Tosh, Paton and Bairnson becoming members of the Alan Parsons Project, and Tosh also working with 10cc. Lyall died of AIDS-related causes in 1989. Paton and Bairnson reconvened in 2002, to re-record the original Pilot album Two's a Crowd. The subsequent issue was entitled, Blue Yonder (see below).
