Rare MONO original 1968 British TRACK RECORDS first pressing!!!
THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN
...UK- TRACK RECORDS - 613005 - MONO
RARE Hard to find original BRITISH 1968 VINYL first pressing on the famous UK "Track" label in glorious MONO ...the rare monaural release offers different song mixes from the stereo issue and also features a way different bold monaural punch in the sound production.
By 1968, the date of this album MONO releases by record companies were all but phased out by the end of 1967. This is really a scarce pressing as the mono production was very limited
Classic 1968 British psychedelia...features pre-Atomic Rooster organist Vincent Crane and pre-Emerson Lake & Palmer drummer Carl Palmer.
The Crazy World of Arthur Brown issued just one album in 1968 off Polydor. But that one album holds up as one of rock’s great one shot wonders. Prior to releasing this lp Brown had been singing in a number of semi pro bands throughout the early 60’s while studying in France. It was during this period that Brown developed his strange stage persona and eccentric nature.
In 1967 The Crazy World of Arthur Brown released the Track single Devil’s Grip backed by Give Him A Flower. This album is a good slice of soul drenched psychedelia that was notable for Brown’s operatic vocals and heavy organ interplay. In 1968 Brown and the group released Fire, a huge top ten hit over in England and here in the US. When Fire hit the airwaves nothing sounded quite like it. Brown’s vocals were demonic, the song’s lyrics were threatening and like the album above, it had a slight r n b feel.
The group’s only album is one of the masterpieces of late 60’s British rock, a confident, flamboyant debut that has few equals. The album opened with Prelude - Nightmare, a powerful piece of early progressive rock with crazed vocals, thundering drums and soulful organ via Vincent Crane - a true classic. The two covers, I Put A Spell On You and I’ve Got Money are suprisingly fine examples of British R&B. Spontaneous Apple Creation is possibly the album’s most psychedelic cut with lots of sound effects and nonsensical lyrics but a good piece of music regardless. The band flirts with basic pop on the catchy Rest Cure but for many Child of My Kingdom was the group’s finest moment on lp. This track is a superb piece of British R&B with hints of psychedelia and just plain lostness. The albums atmosphere is dark in a tongue in cheek kind of way.
