''Mainstream'' is the only album of the UK band Quiet Sun. The band split up in 1972, Manzanera to Roxy Music, MacCormick to Matching Mole, Hayward to This Heat and Jarrett began to teach mathematics. In 1975, Manzanera booked a studio for 26 days to record his first solo album ''Diamond Head'' and got Quiet Sun together again to record a studio album from their previously composed material at the same time. The result ''Mainstream'' was critically acclaimed and became the New Musical Express' album of the month, apparently Island Records' fourth or fifth biggest seller at the time, close up to Bad Company and Cat Stevens. Reworked versions of two tracks from ''Mainstream'' - "Mummy was an asteroid..." (merged with Manzanera's song from ''Diamond Head'' "East of Echo," and rechristened "East of Asteroid") and "Rongwrong" - were performed by Manzanera's 801 project during 1976 and feature on their acclaimed LP ''801 Live''. A CD release of ''Mainstream'' was released in 1997 on Manzanera's label, Expression Records. ==Track listing (Original version)== #"Sol Caliente" (Phil Manzanera) – 8:02 #"Trumpets with Motherhood" (Charles Hayward) – 1:30 #"Bargain Classics" (Dave Jarrett) – 5:37 #"R.F.D."
