BEGGARS OPERA - BEGGARS OPERA - Time Machine - A Collection Of Rare Tracks (1971-1972) - FRA Verne Limited Press - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 110,00 PLN / 27,50 EUR
This unique, limited album of nearly an hour contains unreleased, unique 'live' recordings by the brilliant (on their first three albums) progressive Scottish band. The first side is filled with three extended classics of the band, recorded live in the studio (with Virginia Scott additionally on mellotron) for the legendary German programme "Beat-Club" (1971). It all sounds perfect - like recordings made by Vertigo, or better! In my opinion the version of "Time Machine" is even better (slightly heavier) than the one from the second album! For those 28 minutes alone you should own this splendid record. The second part is filled with a 30-minute fragment of a performance in Italy on 4 May 1972, recorded from the audience, that is an 8-minute "MacArthur Park" and a stunning, powerful, 20-minute cover of a classic by the psychedelic band Eire Apparent, "Yes I Need Someone". It sounds very good, you can't tear yourself away, though not as good as the tracks from German TV. The album is adorned with a very nice laminated sleeve containing several rare photos of this underrated band. A MUST! Condition: MINT, NEW, unsealed. (JL) -

The first album by Beggars Opera, recording for Vertigo, one of the most interesting British progressive bands of the early 70s. Art-rock, improvised playing combining elements of the style of The Nice, Procol Harum, and even early Van der Graaf - with a little hard rock. The first three albums are simply indispensable. A remastered Japanese reissue in a plastic jewel case, enriched with two bonus tracks. A must! (JL) -
