  • MINTY CLEAN VINYL
  1. Original British 1970 FIRST PRESS ... long time highly sought psychedelic underground first rate progressive trio featuring intensely creative Hammond organ surpassing the legends in similar style.

  1. Includes the plastic lined Decca/Deram printed inner sleeve
Well noted original minty discs like this are in the $500+ range within collector circles around the globe.
Please be aware this original (stereophonic) record on the silver/red 1970 British DERAM imprint is in a red sleeve as pictured that differs completely from the original cover art. Nonetheless the vinyl condition is extremely clean and preforms flawlessly remaining an UPGRADE pressing of a truly invigorating adventure over both sides - never a dull moment!

  2. As is to be expected, AARDVARK's material is ALL powered/propelled keyboard oriented; the brunt of the adventurous music being carried by the fuzzed-up Hammond organ which more or less simulates the job of a distorted guitar. The soaring vocals by Skillin are pleasant and the music, are quite melodic in a basement sounding melodic way.

  4. A highly energized progressive (psych) act without a guitar player? That's exactly what early 70's British AARDVARK is.

  6. Similar to the highly rated U.K. Hammond organ trio EGG even when decidedly blows that crew away with driving energy/creativity soaring off the edges into uncharted boundaries even by today's standards. 


  9. Originally, they became known mainly because Paul Kossof and Simon Kirke played in the band before leaving to form legendary band FREE.
THE FAN-MAN details further: "This is undoubtedly one of the most noble and dedicated efforts from the burgeoning prog scene of the early 1970s. Aadrvark is a band in which is to be returned to again and again, a staple of the progressive music that originally transforms one as a dedicated fan of progressive music. The soaring, endless organ lines compels in immediate and driving work. The band take organ work to a very impressive height with obsession of powerized Hammond organ, exploring boundaries that are quite dynamic for early 1970 and well beyond. Highest regard to their wonderful , earnest musicianship."

  1.   CONDITION:

  3. The cover: rated: bright RED die-cut cover is MINT... there are no delete marks, no split seams, no bends, and no writing  ...

  1. The vinyl: Rated: M- TOP COPY ... the 51 years past British (only) DEram imprint is a TOP COPY and plays fantastic with phased stereophonic speaker-to-speaker melodics and fiery jams ... both silver/red UK Deram labels are clean.


A cool addition to anyone's music library!
