Album:
Out Of Darkness (Key KL 006) 1970
CD: Little Wing (LW 2008) 1990; Key Records (KL006)
This is one of the most sought-after British progressive albums. The
London-based outfit were pretty competent musicians and the material on the
album ranges from beat-psych through to jazz-blues. The highlights include the
Hendrix-influenced "Closing In On Me" and "Wings Of The Morning".
The former track has also resurfaced on "Psychedelic Salvage Co. Vol. 1"
(LP & CD). Apparently it comes from a tape of the band when they appeared on a
TV show.
