This legendary progressive rock band, which was responsible for the UK's most expensive album, were formed
by Steve Giles whilst at school in Northampton in 1968.They perfomed at a few local gigs and as their playing
got tighter decided to go into SIS Studios, Northampton with engineer Alan Bowley to record an album.
The six tracks, written and arranged by the band were recorded over a weekend in 1972 and consist
of melodic progressive rock laced with lots of fuzzy guitar riffs. Only a handful of copies were pressed and Giles,
who had a strong interest in photography, made the first twelve copies into full-colour gatefold sleeves, complete
with booklets of photographs stapled together, augmented with handwritten notes. They were handed out to bandmembers
and their girlfriends! These are now valued at £1,500 by 'Record Collector' who value copies which came with a black and white gatefold sleeve at £1,350 and those which came in a single black and white sleeve at £1,200...(Tapestry of Delights)
