Edison Lighthouse is a name that conjures up the breezy, catchy pop sounds of the early 1970s. The British group is best known for their international hit single "Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)" which topped the UK Singles Chart in 1970 and became a global success. Despite being largely considered a one-hit-wonder, Edison Lighthouse has endured in popular memory thanks to that infectious melody and cheerful vibe that characterized much of the pop music of the era.

Originally a studio group with Tony Burrows as the lead singer, Edison Lighthouse was part of a trend of pop acts that capitalized on the catchy hooks and clean production sound of the period. After the immense success of "Love Grows," the group saw several changes in lineup and continued to perform, although they never replicated the chart-topping success of their signature song. Over the years, the band's classic hit has been re-recorded and remixed, introducing the upbeat track to new audiences, as evidenced by releases like "Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) [Re-Recorded - Sped Up]" and its various versions. The group's continued appeal is a testament to the timelessness of a truly great pop song and the nostalgic affection for the sounds of the early '70s.
