Proud Flesh Soothseer

Very Rare original US LP released on Mercury Records in 1968. 1st US pressing in a gatefold sleeve.

An unusual late-'60s band that combined horn-embellished soul-rock with more interesting material utilizing jazz-colored arrangements and somewhat spacy songwriting. There were few parallels for this kind of thing at the time, other than perhaps the only slightly less obscure Insect Trust. A minor group, but at their best an intriguing one. Amidst routine soul-rock outings like a cover of James Brown's "Think" are more original, ambitious pieces like "Moon Food" and "Lower Lemons," where soul and rock conventions get slightly twisted with avant-garde-tinged jazz arrangements, weird lyrics, and novel (for rock) touches of flute and brass. An inconsistent but interesting album, worth picking up.
