Lot 44DEMON FUZZ-AFREAKA!-1970-FIRST PRESS UK-DAWN-NMINT/NMINT

DEMON FUZZ-AFREAKA! - 1970-THE FIRST PRESS of UK-DAWN-DNLS3013, a mega rare original by a British prog band. Up to a certain point, Demon Fuzz was quite a typical British progressive band of the late sixties. Atypical was the fact that the team consisted of seven black members, which, however, was also not so rare. A turning point occurred when the Demon Fuzz musicians visited Morocco, where they fully discovered African music. Here lies the secret of this unusual group: when they returned back to the UK, they realized that it would be great to mix their native progressive rock with the African rhythms that they loved so much. As a result, their cult album was born, which is designated as Afro-rock. However, the musical palette of Demon Fuzz turned out even brighter. In their heavy progressive, in addition to the African influence, you can find elements of soul (especially in the vocals), and jazz with a confident wind section, and although not so significant, but slipping funk. Their record "Afreka!" sounds very interesting and diverse, and their amazing combination of styles makes the most impressive impression.
The album consists of five very long tracks. Not all of them immediately cut into the brain, but nevertheless look interesting and give pleasure to how well and thoughtfully they are made and played. Especially impressive is the epic Past, Present, and Future for ten minutes and bright in terms of melody and internal diversity of Disillusioned Man.

Lot 38.MANFRED MANN'S EARTH BAND-GLORIFIED MAGNIFIED-1972-FIRST PRESS UK-PHILIPS-NMINT/NMINT

MANFRED MANN'S EARTH BAND-GLORIFIED MAGNIFIED-1972-FIRST PRESS UK-PHILIPS-6308125. Matrix A-1/B-1 is a very rare British original of the cult album. Glorified Magnified is the 2nd studio album by English prog rock band Manfred Mann's Earth Band. Recorded in the summer of 1972 in London at the studio "Maximum". It was released on September 29, 1972, via Philips Records in the United Kingdom and Polydor Records in the United States. For the first time, the band's corporate logo appears on the cover, which will now be shown in a reduced form or color version on all Manfred Mann's Earth Band albums. "Glorified Magnified" was released a little more than six months after the debut album of the band "Manfred Mann's Earth Band". In general, he continued the line outlined by the first album-compositions in the style of heavy progressive rock of the early 1970s with elements of blues and folk, dominated by electric guitar and keyboards. According to music critic Bruce Eder, this is a" hard rock "album of its era, which, due to the mixture of rock, synthesizer and chorus, sometimes achieves the sound characteristic of "King Crimson" of the mid-1970s. Most of the songs are written by the band members, but there are a few cover versions of songs by other musicians, including a treatment of the popular song "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" by Bob Dylan from the 1965 album Bringing It All Back Home. ...more

Lot 59.CROSS (EX-QUEEN, ROGER TAYLOR AUTOGRAPH)- BLUE ROCK-1991- FIRST PRESS UK/EU-GERMANY-NMINT/NMINT

CROSS (EX-QUEEN, ROGER TAYLOR AUTOGRAPH) - BLUE ROCK-1991-FIRST PRESS UK/EU-GERMANY-7777976241. A mega rare original of EX-QUEEN's solo work. The Cross is a British rock band founded by Queen drummer Roger Taylor. It existed from 1987 to 1993, during which time it released 3 studio albums and 9 singles. The band's sound changed with each album: Shove It mixed rock and dance music; Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know was closer to hard rock, and Blue Rock mixed elements of hard rock and heavy metal. The third album, Blue Rock, was the most controversial. Some fans call it frankly weak, while others leave only the best reviews about the album. This album was released only in Germany and Japan, where The Cross achieved the greatest popularity. It seems that the band broke up due to a complete lack of interest in the UK and the US. The Cross was not a great commercial success, although the album Shove It still managed to reach number 58 in the UK charts,  the singles Shove It — number 82, Heaven for Everyone — number 83 and Power to Love-number 85.  ...more

The record demonstrates the group's desire to expand their own stylistic framework, a number of his compositions in musical terms are noticeably more complex than the CCR records of 1968-1969. The most ambitious of the band's seven albums, Pendulum was recorded for about a month — twice as long as the rest of the records. ...more
