MCPHEE - McPhee - EU Once Again Expanded Limited Edition - LISTEN - VERY RARE

A limited, European reissue of the only, but excellent, album, released in November 1971, by an Australian band playing heavy, progressive rock in the style of strong Spooky Tooth from their best period with an admixture of Atomic Rooster and Deep Purple. In fact the band performed its own versions of tracks from the LP 'The Last Puff' (Spooky Tooth, 1970): 'The Wrong Time' and (composed by the Beatles) here an 8-minute 'I Am The Walrus'! Of the 7 tracks as many as 5 were excellent covers of other artists' pieces and 2 were the band's original compositions - including an excellent, improvised, over 10-minute track with flute in the leading role! Generally the album was filled to the brim with the juicy, "British" sound of 1969-1970, that is plenty of Hammonds, striking yet solid guitars and thoroughbred vocals: a predominant female (great) and a marginally appearing male (OK). Once again: there is zero filler on this album! Released in a run of only 500 copies, the McPhee vinyl album is probably the greatest rock rarity from the circle of Australian old rock, because every serious collector wants to have it and listen to it! Well-preserved copies with the checkered front and the very dark sleeve, impossible to keep without minor scuffs, when they appear cost over 2000 euros! A must! (JL) Condition: New, sealed.
