revelation

Virus, from the Bielefeld area in Westphalia, were the best and most popular local progressive group in the early seventies. In 1970 they won the well-known band contest that took place in the Recklinghausen Vestlandhalle, at that time still under their old name of Mans World. The first prize consisted of recordings for their first own LP, under the direction of sound magician Conny Plank. That LP, 'Revelation', was released in 1971 and is partly reminiscent of the early Pink Floyd, e.g. during the final part of 'Endless Game'. This is a welcome reissue on vinyl!.
