STRANGE AFFAIR
HELP YOURSELF
LP
1972 UNITED ARTISTS RECORDS US UAS 5591
HELP YOURSELF were formed in 1970 near London, and initially consisted of guitarist Richard Treece, drummer Dave Charles, bassist Ken Whaley and guitarist/keyboardist/vocalist Malcolm Morley. The band recorded their first studio album in 1971...and "STRANGE AFFAIR" was born in 1972 -- An excellent second album -- despite the best of Help Yourself's bluesy progressive guitars led rock that roundly kicks up the beer and sawdust circuit. The Lp opens with the hefty chimes of the title track, Strange Affair moves on through a kaleidoscope of moves and movements, ranging from the gently and certainly Beatles-ish "Deanna, Call & Scotty," and onto a clutch of songs that would not have sounded out of place on the American West Coast with "Quicksilver" stylings... The album's peak, however, has to be the nine-minute "The All Electric Fur Trapper," a lush and lovely epic that conjures images of a faintly rural-flavored Pink Floyd as it moves through a series of distinct phases that climax with a deeply fuzzy burst of JoJo Glemser guitar savagery -- wild and exciting. Accompanied by a wryly flowery essay from Sean Tyla, "The All Electric Fur Trapper" stands not only among Help Yourself's greatest achievements, but also among the highlights of the entire early-'70s British underground... - Malcolm Morley / guitar, vocals
