BILLY NICHOLLS :Would you Believe

Originally recorded 1968 in the UK and was planned for

Immediate. As everybody knows withdrawn and only a

few copies are known to exist. The rarest UK major label psychedelic album and a great one too.

One of the greatest pop/psych 60's albums most

mainstream people have never heard... probably only

eclipsed by the Millenniums wonderful "Begin", and

equaled by the Moon's "Without Earth" and of course

the Zombies "Odessey And Oracle" .

Every track is exquisitely produced and performed,
and each offers something different to the listener.
It's very similar to the (best of the) Left Banke in

it's baroque pop-esque qualities, while still maintaining
a sort of British "Pet Sounds" feel to it (which is a huge
compliment) lyrically. The words themselves are simple,
but the composition of each track is so masterfully
handled that it gives them vast strength.
With Denny Gerrard, Ronnie Lane Steve Marriott,
Nicky Hopkins, John Paul Jones, Kenney Jones....
This superb UK reissue from 1997 on Tenth Planet 042
has completely vanished and is superrare.
It was limited to 1000 numbered copies and your chance
to score a top copy, as original fetched over £5000 !!!
