Raw Material - Raw Material 2 x CDs (expanded) (Mega Blowout Sale)
SKU
23-SB2DP1096
First album by a UK proto-progressive outfit that was released in the fall of 1970. Their second album, Time Is, is a minor classic and this isn't quite as amazing, but it’s still very good and if you if you want more by them and you dig that 1970 exploratory, UK, proto-prog vibe...
"One of the best and most accessible underground jazzy prog LPs of the period." - Galactic Ramble
“Raw Material made little impact on the crowded London scene in the late '60s and early '70s, but their blend of prog, psych, and jazz has gone on to become a firm favorite with cognoscenti all over the world. Their classic debut album was originally issued in October 1970, and receives its definitive reissue with this deluxe double-CD.
As well as the full album, it features both sides of all three singles they'd made to date, as well as the whole of the Sounds Progressive LP they'd released under a pseudonym.
The set includes a 16-page booklet offering detailed background notes (drawing on original interviews) and copious photos and promo materials, as well as a reproduction of the promo poster sent to a few UK record shops at the time. Double-CD digipack with 16-page booklet.”
