'''''To Pagham & Beyond''''' is the second studio album by [[United Kingdom|British]] [[prog-rock]] band [[Skin Alley]], released in December 1970. It is regarded as the band's best album by [[Online database|online music database]], [[AllMusic]].<ref name="AM" />

==Background==
In 1969, Skin Alley released their [[self-titled]] [[studio album]], it being their first. Only a few months after the release of their debut album, they would return to the studio in order to start working on a follow up. At this point bandmember [[Thomas Crimble]] would depart for [[rock band]] [[Hawkwind]], and would be replaced by musician (bassist and flutist) and ex [[Atomic Rooster]] member, [[Nick Graham (musician)|Nick Graham]]. This change in line-up would cause the band to lean towards a more improvisational style.

==Releases==
''To Pagham & Beyond'' was originally released by [[CBS Records International|CBS]] in 1970, and has since been re-released as a CD multiple times by different labels.
