"Quatermass" by Quatermass whose members had connections to Deep Purple, The Herd (of Peter Frampton fame), Roxy Music and even Johnny Kidd & The Pirates! The best track from this 1970 prog rock album is "Up on the Ground".
Talking about Johnny Kidd & the Pirates (see Quatermass post above) reminds me of their greatest song, "Shakin' All Over", one of the best if not the best early 60s pre Beatles singles from the U.K.
Well, I've certainly enjoyed everything I've heard from her so far and I've been looking forward to hearing this. She has such a great voice! Rose Cousins 2020 Bravado
When it was released in the year 2000, In Poly Sons presented this album
as follows: "Alice is to wonders what the Penicillium is to Roquefort.
Wonders which punctuate the life of astonishment, small fears,
obsessions or absurdities. Not a life in candy pink, where Manichaeism
governs rules social life." This veritable “concept-album”, the work of
Klimperei, a duo from Lyon (France) at the time, Françoise Lefebvre and
Christophe Petchanatz, had long been sold out in its compact disc
version, a very beautiful object set with a cover art created by Alfie
Benge (well known for her record sleeves for Robert Wyatt).
20 years after its CD release, Alice Au Pays Des Merveilles is published
in digital version, on April 1, 2020, a beautiful facetious date quite
appropriate.
All from my mysterious F drive. I recall going on a Bobby Hutcherson quest a few years ago which lead me down the dark paths of Blue Note albums that didn't get released until twenty years after they were recorded etc etc. Naturally everything I didn't buy a physical copy of promptly got lost.
I watched a programme from Sky Arts last night that I recorded last week. If it wasn't the concert from this recording it was very similar. Watching it made me think about Dire Strits having at least one element of prog rock, in that many tracks were elongated in the way that was fashionable in the early 70s with Prog Rock.
Cheers I have the Mosaic 3 cd set but it doesn't feature any of those albums. Components is a fine piece of work as you'd expect from someone who recently played with the likes of Eric Dolphy, Andrew Hill etc.

Great covers were made by The Who, The Guess Who, The Lords and Iggy Pop but Johnny beats the lot of them!
