In 1972, David Bentley, Mick Lieber, and David Montgomery made recordings with new members Gary Boyle (guitar) and former The Easybeats' member Tony Cahill (bass). These tracks subsequently appeared on the band's only album (also titled "In a Broken Dream") alongside the earlier Rod Stewart recordings from 1969. This resulted in the release of the song and the subsequent charting. The song was popular in Europe and appeared on the soundtrack of films and documentaries (including the art house movie "Breaking the Waves") and became the subject of many cover versions. Rod Stewart included the song on two anthologies of previously recorded work and in 1996 an English band, Thunder, delivered a high-octane rendering that propelled it into the UK chart for the second time.
