greenslade

Label: SUNDAY (TAPESTRY sublabel)

On 180-gram vinyl. Formed by Greenslade and Reeves (both previously with Colosseum) in November 1972. Dave Lawson had earlier played with Alan Bown and Episode Six, whilst Andrew McCulloch had bashed the skins in King Crimson, Crazy World Of Arthur Brown and Fields. Their first two albums were critically acclaimed and successfully merged several different musical styles in a keyboard-driven format. Their album covers were illustrated and calligraphed by Roger Dean. Highly talented musicians, their albums were complex and rather elitist.
