A pop/rock outfit from Montreal, Quebec signed to Quality and Can-Am in Canada and eventually Atlantic Records in New York where Felix Pappalardi produced their single "When I Fall In Love".
As the band finally started to gain some notoriety, prior to the summer of 1968, Barry Albert left to continue working at a high paying job with Cyanamid of Canada and to finish a University degree in Business Management and Taxation. A few months later Albert joined a group called LIFE and made the RPM Magazine Top-40 across Canada in 1969 with a single called "Hands of the Clock" - which also made the Top-100 in Billboard USA.
The remaining trio carried on under the name Energy.
Following Energy's demise, Corky Laing replaced Norman Smart in Leslie West's band Mountain; Both Ship and Gardos co-wrote songs for Mountain's 'Climbing' album; Gardos went on to join Charlee; Albert became the business manager for a top session singer in Quebec and still continues to perform as well.
