Title: Who Needs Pyjamas?
File: Progressive Rock
“This album is an interesting mix of Rock and Prog Rock with eighteen tracks of interesting music full of original themes and sounds. The track titles and lyrics at times bring a smile to your face. Serious musicians with solid backgrounds and resumes having fun with new sounds and music designed to please all.” Mark Johnson, Sea Of Tranquility
“Never one to slow down GEOFF DOWNES formed a new band without severing his obligations to YES and ASIA. The album is a juicy proposition that doesn’t require a nightdress, indeed it is as hot as hell, the Devil having a ball!” ME, Let It Rock

Deckchair Poets is a supergroup collaboration of Lynden Williams on vocals, Dave Meros on bass, Ollie Hannifan on guitars, Geoff Downes on keyboards and Nick D’Virgilio on drums.
Released in 2013 to great critical acclaim, Lynden Williams said: “It was obvious from the fun nature of ‘Pyjamas’ that they could not be released under the Jerusalem banner and a new name was needed.
“Geoff and I considered at our time of life we should be sitting on a beach somewhere reciting amusing limericks and thus the name appeared.”
