Titanic - Sea Wolf 1971

Titanic was a rock band from Norway, which also included a British member in its line-up. The group was made up of Kenny Aas, Kjell Asperud, John Lorck, Janny Løseth, Roy Robinson (lead singer) and for a short time around their chart success, John Williamson. They formed in 1969, and released several successful albums and singles before disbanding in 1979. The main composer was the group founder Janny Loseth, with Roy Robinson supplying the primarily English language based lyrics. In October 1971 Titanic reached Number 5 in the UK Singles Chart, with their instrumental track, "Sultana". It was performed in the style of the then popular band, Santana. The tune also appeared on their Titanic's album Sea Wolf. Due to a lack of other corresponding chart presence, Titanic are known as one-hit wonders. Their latest reunion album Ashes and Diamonds was released on February 20, 2009 in Europe.
