WOODY KERN - Awful Disclosures Of Maria Monk - EU Ethelion Remastered Limited Press - LISTEN - VERY RARE

A reissue by the Ethelion label (specialising in little-known, top-shelf classic rock), in my opinion ONE OF THE TEN BEST LITTLE-KNOWN BRITISH PROGRESSIVE ALBUMS from the TURN OF THE 60s and 70s! Released in January 1969, sadly the only LP by this band, it is an excellent combination of the then so refreshing mixture of late psychedelia and blues- and jazz-based early prog rock, close to the achievements of Jethro Tull, very early Family, Spirit and Captain Beefheart. Nice flute and saxophone parts, jazzy guitar, dreamy, psychedelic vocals and mind-blowing, very spacious yet solid sound of the rhythm section. A wonderful record and at the same time totally underrated to this day (even by my fellow writer Richard Morton-Jack...). 56 minutes of intense and unforgettable experiences! The drummer visible on the front of the cover later played in the progressive band Whichwhat. An absolute MUST!
