Their self-titled debut album was released in mid-1970 to positive reviews, but few sales. Their second album, Once Again, gained more favourable reviews, and the tour that followed was conducted with a full orchestra under the guidance of Robert John Godfrey. Their third album Barclay James Harvest and Other Short Stories was an even greater achievement, though Martyn Ford was brought in to supervise the orchestral work after Godfrey departed over writing issues behind Mocking Bird – one of the group's most consistently popular tracks. By the release of their fourth album, Baby James Harvest, in 1972, the pressures of touring were beginning to have an impact on the band, and the album's inconsistency was noticed by fans and critics alike. After this album, they departed from EMI, moved management to Harvey Lisberg,[2] and signed to Polydor, the move immediately resulting in greater sales. The next album, Everyone Is Everybody Else (1974 is viewed by many as their artistic high point. This was shown by the album being played extensively on Radio Caroline,[3] and by its appearance in their Top 100.
