Superb dynamics. Fancy cover art by Gilbert Petit, France. Listen to "We free kings" with Hank Jones, piano.

Van der Graaf Generator - The Least We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other
(1970, The Famous Charisma Label/B&C) UK pressing
Fosgate Signature Tube Phono Pre/Rega P9/Benz Wood/McIntosh MC 2205/JBL 4430
Underrated progrock. A lost gem? Powerful vocal harmonies and exceptonally strong guitar work.
Their problem was the lack of a prominent leader figure like Freddie Mercury of Queen.
Listen to title track B4.

Jeff Beck Group - Beck-Ola
(1969, Epic) -1E/-1C
Fosgate Signature Tube Phono Pre/Rega P9/Benz Wood/McIntosh MC 2205/JBL 4430
Produced by Bill Wyman for Purple Records. Recorded with the Rolling Stones' mobile unit on location. Sounds somehow rather like crumbling rocks than like rolling stones. Inadequate production work! Half-baked....
Best song "Can't live without it" A1.

Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
Listen to the guitar work by Mick Ronson. He was the most important man next to Bowie! He didn't ever get the credits. Shame on Bowie!!!!

Liner notes: "Sixty minutes of entertainment. Electronically re-channelled for stereo".
The result: no listening pleasure. No go!
At least, it's an interesting Pye-compilation: listen to the great vocal harmonies by "The Ivy League" from Birmingham (Pre-Flowerpot Men with Jon Lord and Jimmy Page)
