Slade in Flame was an album by the British glam/hardrock group Slade released on November 29, 1974. The album contained songs from the film of the same name Slade In Flame.
The album reached #6 on the UK album chart and produced two hit singles, "Far Far Away" and "How Does it Feel?" (see track listing below). The band tried to give the album a "sixties" feel, as its eponymous film was set in 1966.
Though the record was lauded by critics, the response of the general public was somewhat muted, and the album did not sell as well as expected, even though it was released in time for the Christmas market. In February 1975 Slade's record company released the track "How Does It Feel?" as a single. Reaching #15 on the charts it ended a run of 12 consecutive Top 4 hits. However the song has since become regarded as one of the band's finest.
The album was released in the United States on the Warner Bros. label, with "Bangin' Man" replacing "Summer Song (Wishing You Were Here) & "Thanks for the Memory" replacing "Heaven Knows"
