Pass It Around (Smokie album)

Pass It Around is the debut studio album by British rock band Smokey (later renamed Smokie), released in 1975. The album features eleven original group songs and two Nicky Chinn / Mike Chapman compositions. The Chinn / Chapman written title track was chosen to be Smokie's debut single. "Pass It Around" / "Couldn't Live" was released on 21 March 1975 but failed to succeed in the BBC Radio 1 playlist. The problem was playlist controllers who thought that ambiguous lyrics might be expounded to be a reference to smoking marijuana. As a result, the single flopped to reach the UK Top 50.
