UK UNDERGROUND 1971 - 1976 2

 
 UK UNDERGROUND 1971 - 1976 vol. 2

ONE YARD BELOW ZERO

It’s numero doS of the UK Underground series.


Yeah, well, as we are at it, let’s go for another slice of UK Underground Music.

I hope you dig it. Those were very adventurous days, and the bands were musically demanding and musically skilled. The arrangements were often complex, but the composers never lost that feel for accessibility. Great days!

Thanks for Volumes 1 and 2. I might have heard of maybe two or three of these groups at the time, though I eventually found out about several others over the years. Still, the only one of these bands I remember sitting down and listening to in those days was the Doctors of Madness, as I borrowed one of their albums from somebody at school.

Hallo HJK, so schön, dich wieder aktiv zu sehen! Ich hatte schon Sorge... in unserem Alter, verdammt...
Gewohnt tolle Comps von dir, danke!

Nee, lieber CH, hatte und habe nur sehr viel um die Ohren.
Du bist ja auch sehr aktiv. Gut zu sehen!
Halt Dich aufrecht.
