ACHE - De Homine Urbano +2 - EU Prog Gems Expanded Limited Edition - VERY RARE - LISTEN

A new, remastered, limited European edition of the sensational debut, recorded in the summer of 1969 and released by Philips in February 1970, by a progressive Danish band referencing the style of the then most rock (with dominant electric guitar and Hammond organ) achievements of Procol Harum, Rare Bird, The Nice and late The Beatles. This record, full of dynamics, catchy melody and truly exquisite, contains only two extended suites (composed for a ballet) and it must be admitted that outside Britain nobody at the turn of 1969-1970 played this kind of music so professionally! It is one of my most favourite progressive records 'ever'! The album 'Green Man', released in 1971, was also excellent, but I value the debut a little more... Additionally 2 tracks from a single from 1970 are added to the disc - including 'Over The Fields', never released on CD, probably the heaviest in the band's career! The sound is slightly better than on earlier editions and simply beats hands down the dull and lifeless versions from YouTube! In addition the CD contains several rare photos of the band. AN ABSOLUTE MUST! Condition: New, sealed. (JL)
