Silent Nights is a rock album released in 1985 by Rick Wakeman.[5]

The single to the album entitled 'Glory Boys' got a large amount of airplay but the pressing plant where it was being made went on strike. Although the shops were ordering the single in large amounts, not many copies of the single were available to be purchased. This meant that the airplay for the single stopped as people found it hard to purchase a copy.Although the album was not a commercial success Rick Wakeman himself has stated on his official site that 'Glory Boys' is probably the best single he has ever released.[6]
