[1] With lead vocals by member Bobby G, the song tells of a fading movie star who is desperate to regain some of her former glory.
As well as a 7" and 12" single, "Golden Days" was also released as a limited edition 7" picture disc EP, which featured a live medley of rock tracks which the group had performed in concert.
The song was originally recorded by Cliff Richard as "The Golden Days are Over" a year previously on his album, Silver.
