"No Happy Ending" For a while I wasn't sure that I wanted anyone to hear this song but it's OK now... I call this the break - up song I know lots of us have experienced this kind of thing in our lives it isn't easy to go through I guess this song was part of my therapy.... |

"Molly Oliver" was known for their fantastic harmonies and decided to record "Carry On" by "Crosby Stills & Nash" to show off their vocals. Bruce co-ordinated this last Molly Oliver release himself, after becoming frustrated with the record company situation. He hired Paul Northfield, an engineer-producer he met at Le Studio, in Morin Heights Quebec, where Molly Oliver was recording some of their tracks for the London Records Canada-release. Bruce was impressed with Paul's ability to get great sounds and come up with fantastic production ideas and also with his credentials. Paul worked with The Bee Gees, Gentle Giant, Rush just to name a few. Bruce feels this session was the best sounding record Molly Oliver ever produced. The album was released in the Maritimes and received extensive air-play. The single from the E.P. called (Apology) was high on the charts for quite some time. Musicians On E.P. Ken
