Herald - LLR 566

Condition - NEX/EX

Very rare 1969 album issued on a very obscure label. It's very much a creation of its' time and delivers "message" songs with a hint of pop/psych. In fact it reminds me of UK psych legends Kaleidoscope.

Check out the cover - so that's what Gordon Brown did before he went into politics!

Grapevine - Grapevine 111

Condition - EX/EX

1977 album from this six piece Irish group with two female vocalists. The material is self composed and of high quality. It's a John Pantry production so quality is guaranteed

Indigo - IDS 5567

Condition - EX/EX

Dark and slightly unnerving 1974 album based on the teachings of St Ignatius Loyola and helmed by Wilfred Usher and William Hewett. It's deep and rare and not recommended for Sunday School....

Cedar - CEDAR 1

Condition - EX/EX

Seven female vocalists and a full band make up Achor on this scarce 1978 album. All the songs are by Claire White and very lovely they are too.

Dovetail - DOVE 18

Condition - NEX/EX

Linked to the band Achor, this is a much sought after and lovely 1975 album. A full eight piece band with female vocals tackle self-composed material. Beautiful cover too. 

Dovetail - DOVE 3

Condition - NEX/EX

1973 debut album from these fine Jesus rockers. Produced by the great John Pantry who also plays keyboards. It's got a West Coast vibe and there are a couple of excellent acid-rock workouts which wouldn't be out of place on a Quicksilver album.

Dovetail - DOVE 4

Condition - NEX/EX

An early release on the collectable Dovetail label. Issued in 1976 by this 7-piece band, the material is self composed has a lovely weary tone. Some of the material is brilliant and fuses the symphonic rock and fok rock styles to great effect. 

Produced by 60's drummer-man Bobbie Graham.

Profile - GMOR 142

Condition - EX/EX

Everything issued on the Profile label is rare & collectable. This 1977 album has the trio backed by a full band on contemporary pop & folk flavoured material. The back cover has been autographed by Gill Hargeaves.

Indigo - IRS 5510

Condition - NEX/EX

Now this is a weird one. The portraits on the front cover, displaying care-in-the community hairstyles would tend to raise the prospect of a happy-clappy collection of songs but this is bendy psychedelia of a strange sort. The material is self composed and if they had been American maybe they would have been absorbed into the exotic wing of the Yah Ho Wah sect...

Profile - GMOR 003

Condition - EX/EX

Everything on this label is sought after even though some of the output is less than sparkling. This 1974 album is as rare as the others but is a lovely collection of heartfelt self composed songs with a social content and a religious flavour.  

He's backed by a full group and there's some nice piano and brass.
