FLAMENGO - KURE V HODINKACH /Supraphon  013 1287,  1972/(CHICKEN IN THE WATCH).This is much rarer MONO Pressing!

Original pressing of this most revered Czech prog classic, has a sound akin to the British jazz-rock sound

but darker, something like a cross between Colosseum and VGDD. They started out as a R'n'B band but

moved to progressive jazz-rock for this one.

The LP is also well known because of its withdrawal. According to a great Bavarian collector, the story

goes that way: as the cover was representing an icon of the monarchy and the lyrics were too subversive

for the then communist authorities, the aforementioned simply pulled out the LP from the racks and

destroyed the stocks as a censorship, making it an instant collectible. This was also the end of Flamengo.

„the most complex progressive of all Czech bands, this sole release was

banned upon release due to the „controversial sleeves“ =Chicken in the

clock. They stared as a pop band and developed from beat to jazz roots in 60

Ls to a lively complex progressive fusion akin to early Colosseum, but the

fiery M.Efekt like energy and uniquely Czech sound. This is and absolute

masterpiece, also featuring excellent vocals of Vladimir Mišk /of Blue Effect:

Meditace period“
