RARE 1969 CLEAN ORIGINAL UK PROGRESSIVE ROCK CLASSIC
HARDIN/YORK
TOMORROW TODAY
...USA - BELL RECORDS - 6043
Original 1969 first pressing of a rare progressive album ...during the heady days of 1969 the ubermusos such as Keith Emerson and Steve Howe were flexing their dextrous fingers to "boldly go, onwards and upwards, where no rock had gone before". Progressive rock was born.
The 1969 first album by the great British duo: keyboardist / vocalist Eddie Hardin and drummer Peter York. Hardin was a superb keyboards player and his abilities were often compared to those of Steve Winwood (whom he replaced in the Spencer Davis Group) and even Keith Emerson. His vocal abilities and his songwriting skills were also second to none. York, a Jazz influenced drummer (also from the Spencer Davis Group), was a perfect partner for Hardin's extended keyboards (mostly the Hammond organ) explorations and the Jazzy atmosphere, which prevails throughout the album
Like contemporaries Colosseum, Hardin & York's jazz inflected prog met with huge critical and commercial favour on mainland Europe, especially Germany where they regularly sold out 15,000 seater venues. Their lasting effect there means that they are still able to draw an audience today when playing periodical tours.
Their debut LP 'Tomorrow Today' was so 'out there' its front cover design won prestigious art awards in New York. The cover artist obviously so pleased with himself he omitted to put the music artists name on the front!
Reviewers called it a "cross between Procul Harum and Traffic", to which we would add The Nice. Released on the decidedly un prog like Bell label it did nothing in the UK but charted in Europe.
