Original OZ LP released in 1977 on Image Records. Cat: ILP775. Comes with printed lyric inner bag which is in Excellent condition.
Recorded live at Dallas Brooks Hall, Melbourne, Sunday 21st August 1977. this live set, their last ever gig, displays Ariel playing at the top of their game, taking out a five-year career on a high. Not only did the concert feature a generous selection of Ariel classics it also gave a nod to Mike Rudd and Bill Putt's former bands Spectrum and Murtceps with terrific versions of such much-loved classics as I'll Be Gone. The original lineup of Ariel was a genuine 'supergroup', combining key members from two of Australia's leading progressive bands of the period: Rudd, Putt and Mills hailed from Melbourne's legendary Spectrum, Gaze and Macara from Spectrum's esteemed Sydney peers Tamam Shud. Lead guitarist Tim Gaze, regarded as one of the hottest players on the scene, had also joined Shud at just 16 and by the time he joined Ariel he had also been a member of Kahvas Jute, and played on their only album, the brilliant Wide Open. Like its predecessor, Ariel was primarily a vehicle for the talents and vision of singer, songwriter and guitarist Mike Rudd, and his longtime bass-player and musical partner, Bill Putt. Like Spectrum, the band began strongly, but lineup changes, record company problems and the changing nature of music in the mid-70s meant that they never achieved the level of success they deserved, and Ariel proved to be Mike Rudd's last really high-profile outfit, although he remains one of the most respected figures in the music scene.
