FRUUPP
PETER FARRELLY, MARTIN FOYE, JOHN MASON, VINCE McCUSKER
One of the hardest-working progressive bands to end up languishing in relative obscurity,
Fruupp was begun in 1971 by guitarist Vince McCusker. After a brief musical apprenticeship in London,
McCusker returned to Belfast and quickly pulled together a group of largely classically
trained musicians. After two years of gigging, they shopped their demo tape around
and were picked up by Pye Records for their Dawn label. Between 1973 and 1975,
Fruupp released four albums, the last of which was produced by King Crimson alum
Ian McDonald; the band also toured in support of Crimson.

RECORD VG+ but (please, read below description)
SLEEVE VG but (please, see pictures and read above description)
Produced by Ian McDonald, Modern Masquerades is a little less classically-influenced than
their earlier efforts. McCusker's Masquerading With Dawn and Mystery Might are excellent tracks
with some at times captivating instrumentation. John Mason contributed two tracks, too,
the sad Gormenghast and the finale, Sheba's Song...(Tapestry of Delights)
