This week - a double-whammy comes courtesy of André - so no surprise that it is some classic early prog, but a small surprise that it is "buy one get one free" week - two morsels for your delectation... :eyebrows:
Here's some clasic early prog i chose for this weeks album club..both of their albums originally released on the the legendary Swirl Vertigo label, home to some of my fav acts.
I chose to include both the bands studio LP’s here as they are pretty much simular stylewise to each other & i could never say which i prefer out of the two tbh..The self titled debut LP (V07) & ‘Asylum’ (6360 025) both 1st issues fetch large chunky of cash on the used market..
I’ll not go babbling on about the band as they have a nice web page to feast your eyes upon (Linked Below).. Quite recently a Vinyl LP entitled ‘Trapped In Time’ offered as a 500 Ltd Edition through record collector magazine, but good news however is that Esoteric Recordings have it on CD with two additional tracks not found on the Vinyl edition.. If you fancy the two Swirly albums, they can also be found on the Esoteric Recording catalogue entitled ‘The Vertigo Years Anthology 1969-1971’ remastered from the original master tapes, also included are additional bonus tracks.
