In “PSYCH! British Prog, Rock, Folk & Blues 1966-1973” 64 tracce mettono in risalto i suoni progressive pubblicati attraverso le etichette Decca e Deram dal 1966 al 1973.

Compralo qui in £ UK.

L’album presenta materiale dei primi Genesis e Moody Blues, oltre a artisti del calibro di Egg, Caravan, Al Stewart, East Of Eden, Jan Dukes De Grey, Igginbottom (che includeva il defunto Allan Holdsworth) , Mellow Candle, Khan, Darryl Way’s Wolf e altro ancora. 

Sarà disponibile come set di tre dischi su CD e anche come pacchetto di 24 brani “highlights” su doppio vinile, contenuto in una copertina apribile. Entrambi i formati presentano nuove note di copertina dello scrittore prog Mike Barnes, autore di “A New Day Yesterday: UK Progressive Rock & the 1970s”.

Nel settembre 1966 i dirigenti della Decca Tony Hall e Hugh Mendl si imbarcarono in un’impresa coraggiosa: la creazione di Deram Records, un’etichetta che mette in risalto la fiorente scena underground in modo simile a Havresy alla EMI e Vertigo alla Philps/Phonogram.
