Cressida were a British art rock band formed at the end of the 1960’s, with a sound not dissimilar to the Moody Blues, combining a heavy organ and Mellotron sound courtesy of keyboard player Peter Jennings.

This, combined with vocalist Angus Cullens singing, which was of a pleasing, almost pop in nature vein, similar to Justin Heyward, Paul McCartney et al.
