Foster & Allen
Coming to attention with their hit single "Bunch of Thyme" in 1979, Foster &
Allen became huge favourites of family audiences with their easy listening charm
and melodic folksie ballads. Both Irish singers and accordion players, they
learned their craft individually on the Irish showband circuit and got together
in 1975 to play the Irish clubs in England. They got their first Irish Number1
single in 1979 with "A Spring of Thyme", although it was another three years
before it was released in the UK, eventually breaking into the British Top 20.
