QUATERMASS/180g Audiophile Crystal Clear Vinyl

Description

The British progressive rock band Quatermass existed from 1969 to 1971, and during this time, they released one album, the eponymous Quatermass. The trio, which formed as a power trio with the Hammond organ as the main instrument, consisted of bassist and vocalist John Gustafson, keyboardist J. Peter Robinson, and Mick Underwood on drums. The keyboard-driven album has gained cult status over the years and has received much acclaim from both critics and fans of progressive rock. This overlooked masterpiece resonates at every moment, sometimes in a funky way and other times with the power of their heavy sound. The most rock-oriented song here is "Black Sheep Of The Family," later covered by Rainbow on their debut album. The progressive parts of the album feature surprising time shifts and unique sounds, giving thrills to rock and metal enthusiasts.
