Two Gold Discs - Over Five Million Record Sales

In the summer of 1968 - approximately one hundred years after the publication of William Makepeace Thackeray's famous literary classic "Vanity Fair"- the band Vanity Fare were born

With their harmony vocals, melodic songs and a slightly different spelling to their name, they achieved great popularity on the British and European Pop scene, when their updated version of an old Sunrays number "I Live For The Sun" hit the charts.

Flying in the face of the incoming heavier trend of the late 60's was deemed professionally dangerous at the time, and you would have been forgiven for supposing that the band would be steamrollered out of the picture. Instead the public embraced their vocal harmony style, and a string of hits followed, giving Vanity Fare a unique place in late 60's and early 70's music history.
