EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - Eight Miles High - A Collection Of Rare Early Tracks And British Radio Sessions (1968-1971) (2LP) - FRA Verne Limited Press - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 170,00 PLN / 42,50 EUR
This is a real treat for fans of this excellent band, and at the same time for lovers of old, classic progressive rock! On the first disc this limited, DOUBLE LP collects excellent recordings not previously published on official vinyls, released only as bonus tracks on the Esoteric reissues of two classic CDs: "Mercator Projected" (1969) and "Snafu" (1970). Above all we have here as many as 30 excellent, thrilling minutes from a recording session made between these two albums! Besides this, two incredibly nice demo recordings from summer 1968, lasting 20 minutes in total, and a mega rarity, that is both sides of the debut, psychedelic single "King Of Siam/Ballad Of Harvey Kaye", released in 1968 (by Polydor). The second record is filled with great, unknown recordings made for BBC radio in 1970-1971 - the vast majority of them in 1970, with the "Snafu" line-up!. The sound quality of sides 3 and 4 is really very good (it is great to listen to), though not perfect. I draw attention to the nice and carefully prepared sleeve and vinyl label - all strongly referring to the graphic designs of the Deram label of the era. In addition, the back of the sleeve contains several nice photos of the band. ATTENTION! Almost all the recordings from the first vinyl appeared 12 years ago, on Verne's first release, "Kings Of Siam". Unfortunately, the record, released in an almost identical sleeve and poorly pressed (on coloured vinyl), did not give full satisfaction, so I assure you that the current, expanded edition will delight all fans of progressive playing! A MUST! Condition: MINT, NEW, unsealed. (JL) -
EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - Mercator Projected +3 - EU Ethelion Expanded Limited Press - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 110,00 PLN / 27,50 EUR
Sensational! A very well recorded and pressed European edition, expanded by three great tracks, including a stunning, 7-minute cover of "Eight Miles High" by the Byrds, and both tracks from the mega-rare debut single "King Of Siam" from 1968. Released in March 1968, East Of Eden's debut is one of the earliest and at the same time best progressive records ever made. Original, charming rock music - a bit like an early but dreamier Jethro Tull with a good dose of jazz and elements of oriental music. You cannot tear yourself away! An absolute MUST! NEW, SEALED. -
EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - Live In Zurich 1970 - FRA On The Air Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
Limited to 500 copies, rare and hard-to-get CD containing a superb, 80-minute recording of a performance by the British progressive group that took place in Zurich in January 1970. The band, belonging to the front rank of British rock groups, was then at the peak of its creative powers - with the brilliant debut "Mercator Projected" to its name and with the second album "Snafu" already recorded (released in March). The record contains almost the whole second LP and over half of the debut. The whole thing is opened by a superb cover of "Eight Miles High" from the repertoire of The Byrds. The sound quality is very good - it is an audience recording, but as was often the case with the Swiss recording (on reel-to-reel) - they knew their trade. So this is one of the best audience recordings I have heard! Attention! The record sounds slightly better than the YouTube links I have posted (from another source) - the instruments are better balanced, which makes the wind instruments more clearly audible. A MUST!

EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - Another Eden +11 - SWE Flawed Gems Expanded Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
On CD for the first time! Fifth album (and, hand on heart, the last really good one) by the progressive Brits - recorded in February 1974, but released a year later by German EMI Harvest. Stylistically it resembles the fourth LP in the discography, "New Leaf". In addition as many as eleven bonus tracks (to tell the truth even better than the content of the album), including three super rare tracks from the BBC (two of them from 1971!) and six live recordings from Germany from 1972. All in all the CD lasts as long as 76 minutes! As with all Flawed Gems releases - excellent sound quality! Highly recommended! -
EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - East Of Eden (3rd Album) - GER Repertoire Remastered Edition - LISTENprice: 70,00 PLN / 17,50 EUR
The third album by one of the best British bands of the turn of the 60s and 70s! On "East Of Eden" the band changed its line-up (only the violinist - Dave Arbus - remained), and in the process its style somewhat, almost entirely giving up the psychedelic or jazz madness known from the earlier records and concentrating on somewhat heavier playing, while not shying away from folk style. Of course it is still pedigree progressive - with attractive violin, flute and saxophone parts, while the guitar was played by one Jim Roche - the first guitarist of Colosseum. An excellent album! A must! (JL) -
EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - World Of East Of Eden (Featuring Jig-A-Jig) - UK Deram 1971 1st Press - EXCELLENT PLUS VINTAGE VINYLprice: 280,00 PLN / 70,00 EUR
ANALOGUE SOUND! The first British edition of a compilation from 1971 (later released as "Jig-A-Jig"), containing tracks from 1968-1971. The sleeve has a trace of a sticker on the back: EXCELLENT / Record, probably unplayed: MINT(-) -
EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - Mercator Projected +3 - UK Esoteric Remastered Expanded Edition - LISTENprice: 70,00 PLN / 17,50 EUR
A stunner! One of the earliest and at the same time best progressive records ever made! Original, charming rock music - a bit like an early and more dreamy Jethro Tull with a pinch of King Crimson and Colosseum and a touch of Eastern music. You cannot tear yourself away! Remastered British edition including a stunning, 7-minute cover of "Eight Miles High" by The Byrds, as well as two demo recordings (of excellent quality) running to 18 minutes together! An absolute must! (JL) -
EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - New Leaf +5 - AUS Progressive Line Expanded Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
A somewhat weaker continuation of the style known from the third record - the same year of release, the same label on vinyl (Harvest), but the band toned things down. The album starts excellently, but then the tracks became shorter and the melodies somewhat simplified. Five bonus tracks added, from singles from 1970-73. -
EAST OF EDEN - EAST OF EDEN - Snafu +7 - UK Esoteric Remastered Expanded - LISTENprice: 70,00 PLN / 17,50 EUR
Remastered British edition with plenty (33 minutes) of unreleased material! Another stunning title from the East Of Eden catalogue. On the second album (after the brilliant LP "Mercator Projected" from 1969) the band kept digging into Eastern territory, adding a little more jazz in the process, and also experimenting psychedelically with tape speed shifts... A fascinating and, of course, decidedly progressive record! Additionally, among others, three unreleased, dynamic tracks that are the sum of the first two albums! A must!
