Rain, Steam & Speed, from 1999, was the fourth and final studio album by New Zealand's Mutton Birds, made while Don McGlashan's band was camped in England chasing a British breakthrough. It was recorded at Blackwing Studios.
It's a record caught in the middle of a changing of the guard: bassist, singer and sometime songwriter Alan Gregg and guitarist David Long both left the band around its release. Back home it still did the business, reaching the top 10 of the New Zealand albums chart, the fourth Mutton Birds album to get there. "Pulled Along By Love" earned a countdown spot. A concert set, Live in Manchester, came next, and after returning to New Zealand the band called it a day in 2002.
