Horringer 1981
"I never argue with anyone about the death penalty, politics, their football team or God. They are the things nobody changes their minds on, so it's a waste of time."

Simon Napier-Bell


The music that matters from Britain during the sixties; a lost time when the British sports car ruled, BOAC traversed the Empire, and manners were largely adhered to.

Angel Pavement 4 track acetate - 1967

Playing at 33rpm this one off acetate contains four previously unheard tracks by this band.  I include one track here (apologies for poor recording):-



Angel Pavement - Phantasmagoria / Rooftop Memories 1967 acetate

This is the only known recording of two early Angel Pavement tracks, one of which I include here for you, both of which have been released on Tenth Planet (Wooden Hill).



GALLIARD - New Dawn Breaking / Winter Song - acetate

Misattributed here to Genesis,  this is a 2 sided acetate by Galliard containing 2 tracks from their Deram LP 'New Dawn', an extremely rare piece of British progressive rock with some jazz and folk leanings.  This was recorded  in the Beatles' legendary Abbey Road Number 2 studio

There is no track called 'Winter Song' which I assume is the track finally named 'Winter - Spring - Summer', though I cannot confirm this.



URBAN - When My Train Comes In - acetate

Fine late sixties composition here by Urban.  Like the Thor acetate posted earlier, both appear on Wooden Hill Psychedelic Schlemiels compilations.

The Roll Movement - I'm Out on My Own / Just One Thing

Another single on the tiny GO label here from 1967 by the Roll Movement.



Cinnamon Quill - Morgan demo with release note - Take it or Leave it

A splendid B side here by Cinnamon Quill.  I have the other single and will post it later.

Complete with release note detailing the band members, and the fact that the band , "who have a huge following in the Midlands, are resident group in Birmingham's top discotheque, the Rum Runner".

JUSTINE - Clown / Leave me Be 1969

Pre LP single by this Anglo American group, here on DOT.



Gervase - Pepper Grinder / Visions

Reputedly, Gervase was a Cambridge outfit (student(s)), and released this one single.




SIMON - Dream Seller / Sweet Reflections of You

This is the second single by Simon (their third can be heard HERE), and contains strong compositions on both sides.  I will post their first single at a later date.
