McCULLY WORKSHOP - GENESIS - PSYCH / PROG / BRASS ROCK - NEW


 A1 Genesis A2 (We All Look) For The Sun A3 Stone Man B1 Red Light City B2 Sweet Fields Of Green B3 Togetherness B4 Order Out Of Chaos

McCully Workshop is one of the most important South African rock groups. Their 2 first albums INC. (1970) and GENESIS (1971) are considered to be among the best, rarest and more expensive South African psychedelic / progressive rock albums – sought after by all serious collectors worldwide.INC, is a great psychedelic album, while GENESIS reminds the best early 70’s UK progressive records and is practically impossible to find even in bad condition.

Limited edition, deluxe 180g vinyl, from the original analogue master tapes, exact reproduction of the original first pressing
McCully Workshop were one of the more well known bands coming out of the late 60s South African psychedelic scene. On their sophomore effort Genesis, the band adopted their psych background and combined that with the then-popular horn rock movement. It's a fascinating blend, as McCully Workshop created something wholly original within a familiar space. The McCully brothers hold down the rhythm section and lead vocals, while new guitarist Bruce Gordon provides the fiery psych toned solos. The key member here is Ian Smith who plays trumpet, flute, flugelhorn, and trombone. They multitracked his instrumental sections, so he sounds like a full horn section! I don't think I've ever heard one person contribute so much brass sounds on a record like this. And the flute sections are sublime.

The compositions are decidedly progressive rock oriented, with multiple tracks carved up in sections very much in the same spirit of the early King Crimson albums. The music itself still has its psychedelic provenance and I was most reminded of The Moody Blues, but with the songwriting of Chicago Transit Authority instead. Very much in line with some of the more progressive oriented UK horn rock bands such as Brainchild, Greatest Show on Earth, and Galliard. If any of these bands push your buttons, then Genesis is a must own.
