Revolution - Underground Sounds Of 1968 (Clamshell)
Compilation
"Revolution - Underground Sounds of 1968", a 3CD clamshell boxed set incl. an illustrated booklet celebrating the so-called "underground" rock music. 1968, a year that saw huge changes, both musical and social. Aside from featuring better known acts such as Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Procol Harum and Pentangle, this compilation also features lesser known acts that produced work of a wide breadth such as Eyes of Blue, Love Sculpture, The Action, Dantalian's Chariot, Elmer Gantry's Velvet Opera, Gun, Second Hand, The Moles and Blonde on Blonde. The common thread among all of these artists was an emphasis on experimentation and a desire to push the perceived boundaries of popular music. This collection celebrates a creative period when rock music was evolving into something altogether more serious, moving away from the single as medium to give way to the dominance of the album.
Featuring tracks by Deep Purple, Traffic, Van der Graaf Generator, Procul Harum, Genesis, Caravan, Jeff Beck & many more.
