TOP COPY
Pretty rare NUMBERED (#276 of only 300 made) from quite a number of years ago... haven't seen a copy in ages. This is a rare exact second press of the impossibly rare and extremely expensive 1971 private press by the mighty VACATION. This pressing incidentally, being in such small number, is about as hard to find as the first press, just not quite.
Originally formed in 1970, the trio who went by the name of Vacation, was one of better heavy-rock-blues groups influenced by the sound of CREAM in the Belgium underground scene, releasing their only album in 1971
After a few line-up changes VACATION had Alain ‘Alan’ Wery on drums, Luigi Collu on guitar, and Sonny ‘Bono’ Ignoti on bass and vocals. They were mainly influenced by heavy acts as Blue Cheer, Cream and Jimi Hendrix and played their own compositions along an occasional cover-song. In 1971, this Belgian power-trio already began attracting a healthy following at their local shows and obviously they began thinking about the possibility of getting some vinyl product into the shops. The band had already a live-registration done by the Belgian national radio (RTB) and those reworked tapes finally ended up on their self financed lp “Resurrection Of Vacation”. The album sounds extremely raw; Sonny’s vocals were Hendrix-like while Luigi’s guitar improvisations and solo’s defined the bands general sound. Highlights were opening instrumental “Vacation”, the heavy riffing in “No War Any More” and the dynamic “On The Day I Die”. It didn’t quite stand up as the definitive blues-rock release (the sound is very primitive - but that's part of the charm) and is extremely energetic. The guitarist is a cut above the rest.
Vacation is somewhat similar to the Belgian group Kleptomania. Fans of 60s /early '70s American heavy-garage rock like "Saint Anthony's Fyre" and Quebec's ELLISON may quite the Vacation album.
