The producer of that smash hit assembled a new group for a new song called “Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)”. Edison Lighthouse was the alias of songwriters and producers Tony McCaulay and Barry Mason, with session vocalist Tony Burrows’ vocals on the hit ‘Love Grows’, although members of the group Greenfield Hammer were eventually brought in to perpetuate the image of a real working band. |After the success of “Love Grows,”|Les Fradkin returned from New York City to join this newly formed British group as an original member of Edison Lighthouse.
