Glider, by Glider, is a group put together by Ted Myers for Chalice Records. In 1975-76 Ted teamed up with Dan Seymour to form the Ted & Dan Two-Man Band, a duo that played cover songs at local lounges. In 1976 they added a bass player and changed the name of the band – first to The Beagles (because they played a lot of Beatles and Eagles songs), then to Glider. They continued to record demos of new songs, and one of these tapes caught the attention of a pair of record producers, Marc Gilutin and Freddy McFinn. Marc and Freddy, who were fellow New York transplants, brought Glider into the offices of Chalice Productions which offered a deal to record an album. Chalice had an exclusive deal with United Artists Records, so release of the album was guaranteed. Glider was never really a band. It was Myers and a constantly-changing array of studio musicians. More than anything else, Myers wanted to be a member of a touring band and the plan was to have the album come out under the band name Glider and then put the touring band together, hoping it would stay together and evolve into a collaborative band experience like the ones in the ‘60s. But this was L.A. and times had changed. By the time the eponymous Glider album was released, relations between the production company and the label had deteriorated to the point where the label had openly promised to bury anything Chalice delivered to them. And Glider was the first to the chopping block.
