Little Fish is the second studio album released in 1993 by the Hanover- based German hard rock band Sargant Fury .
Emergence
The group 's debut album , Still Want More, produced by Tommy Newton , marked a successful start for the band and enabled them to perform as supporting acts for groups such as Ten Years After and Ian Gillan .
Despite this success, the group switched producers for the second album and signed Charlie Bauerfeind , who took over the production together with the group. For Little Fish , the band recorded a cover version of the Abba song Eagle in addition to ten of their own . The album was released in early 1993; Sargant Fury then played in the opening act for the tours of Skew Siskin , Hittman and Mental Hippie Blood.
The sales of the album, however, did not turn out to the expectations of everyone involved despite the uncoupled cover version of Eagle as a single , and the group separated from their record company.
Little Fish was remastered in 2009 and re-released as part of the box set Do You Remember - The Anthology, which included all three of the band's albums. It appeared for the first time in the USA .

reception
Thomas Kupfer wrote for Rock Hard that Sargant Fury had "consistently pursued and refined the musical direction taken on the debut." Wrong Place, Wrong Time , Tomorrow , New Direction and Out were "good lottery numbers, alongside the powerful production and the sophisticated guitar work especially from Mac's expressive voice “lived. However, the band was “in top form” with the title track. In addition, the quintet “ pepped up the brilliant Abba number Eagle in a contemporary way and thus landed an absolute hit”. Little Fish makes it "again clear that Sargant Fury is probably the most hopeful newcomer band in our country".
