The Cleves "Cleves" 1971

In late 1970 the group started work on their album with debut producer Richard Batchens, who would go on to engineer and produce many of Australia's top acts during the 70s including engineering Split Enz’ Mental Notes...

...“We are quite happy about the record," says Rob Aickin. "It was the best that we could get out of the studio. We went in with the intention of laying everything down meticulously and in the end we recorded nearly everything live.”
The Cleves’ self-titled debut album has been described by Australian music historian Ian McFarlane as “a prime example of where psychedelic pop gave way to a more progressive aesthetic. The album is dominated by longer tracks, atmospheric organ/fuzzed guitar interplay and tight vocal harmonies.”
With a heavy touring schedule lined-up, Gaye was exhausted and unwell, so she took four months off and the group recruited Vince Melhouney (ex-Bee Gees) on guitar to fulfill their engagements. - audioculture
