EGG

Description

The now legendary debut album by Egg, featuring the talents of Dave Stewart on keyboards, Mont Campbell on bass and Clive Brooks on drums. Egg were associated with the so-called “Canterbury” style of rock music inspired by artists such as Caravan and Soft Machine. The trio produced music of surprising originality and energy, drawing on influences ranging from rock to jazz, as well as psychedelia and classical music. This fusion resulted in one of the most enduring releases to appear on Decca’s short-lived Nova label and is now regarded by critics as one of the most unique albums of the early 1970s. Remastered from the original tapes, the Esoteric Recordings reissue includes three bonus tracks, including both sides of the band’s only single and “Movement 3” from the album’s celebrated opus “Symphony No. 2”, now restored to its rightful place in this extended composition.
