High Tide made their first recordings as the backing band on Denny Gerrard’s album Sinister Morning . Gerrard returned the favour by producing their first album, Sea Shanties , which was released in October 1969. Though it met with a scathing review in Melody Maker , reviews in the underground press were universally positive, and sales were just enough to convince Liberty to give the green light to a second album.
