Classic 1968 British psychedelia...features pre-Atomic Rooster organist Vincent Crane and pre-Emerson Lake & Palmer drummer Carl Palmer.
The Crazy World of Arthur Brown issued just one album in 1968 on Track Records. However, that one album holds up as one of rock’s great one shot wonders. Prior to releasing this LP Brown had been singing in a number of semi pro bands throughout the early 60’s while studying in France. It was during this period that Brown developed his strange stage persona and eccentric nature.
This album is a good slice of soul drenched psychedelia that was notable for Brown’s operatic vocals and heavy organ interplay. In 1968 Brown and the group released Fire, a huge top ten hit over in England and here in the US. When Fire hit the airwaves nothing sounded quite like it. Brown’s vocals were demonic, the song’s lyrics were threatening and like the album above, it had a slight r 'n' b feel.
The group’s only album is one of the masterpieces of late 60’s British rock, a confident, flamboyant debut that has few equals. The album opened with Prelude - Nightmare, a powerful piece of early progressive rock with crazed vocals, thundering drums and soulful organ via Vincent Crane - a true classic. The two covers, I Put A Spell On You and I’ve Got Money are surprising fine examples of British R&B. Spontaneous Apple Creation is possibly the album’s most psychedelic cut with lots of sound effects and nonsensical lyrics but a good piece of music regardless. The band flirts with basic pop on the catchy Rest Cure but for many Child of My Kingdom was the group’s finest moment on lp. This track is a superb piece of British R&B with hints of psychedelia and just plain lostness. The albums atmosphere is dark in a tongue in cheek kind of way.
