1970 studio album by The Flames From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Flame is a 1970[1] album released by South African band the Flames produced by Beach Boys member Carl Wilson. It's the only non-Beach Boys album to be released on their Brother Records label—albeit distributed by Starday-King Records as opposed to Reprise.[2][3] According to Jerry Osbourne, "The Flame is widely-regarded as the first quad LP."[citation needed] To avoid confusion with James Brown's band of the same name, the "s" on the Flames was dropped, but it was retained on South African pressings.[4] Unlike previous Flames albums, which contain covers, all eleven tracks are originals written by the band.
