Wow…
That is what I have to say. Wow.. The 1st
captain beyond record is an all time classic and this is a great find. The A
side of the album opens with the totally unreleased and cool song called Uranus
from the first recording sessions. Great song (listen below). Then you have the 20min suite,
which made up bands first demo, in a more raw in your face version. Side B
starts with Icarus which appeared on the 3rd album but this is the
demo version with Rod Evans on vocals! Then you have a more raw and aggressive
version of Raging River of Fear that includes a slide solo no on the original
version. The LP ends with Dancing Madly backwards.. This is great stuff. The LP has a nice
printed inner sleeve with the whole story and a lot of old pictures of the band
and you get a card with the number of your LP. Limited to 1000 copies on vinyl
but also available on CD.
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
