WE ARE EVERTHING YOU SEE
2004 Radioactive 042. Very rare W/L TEST PRESSING. Recorded at EMI's Abbey Road Studio, Birmingham-based Locomotive's We Are Everything You See, which appeared on the Parlophone label in 1969. Featuring writer/arranger, vocalist and keyboard player Norman Haines, as well as the le gendary sax player Dick Heckstall-Smith and flautist Chris Wood, We Are Everything abounds with swirling organ, distorted vocals, phased drumming and jazzy tempo changes which bass player Mick Hincks and the rest of the band evidently delight in. Although the album was brilliantly recorded and featured several outstanding tracks (including the truly excellent Mr Armageddon), it did not achieve the degree of success that all the participants had hoped for. Norman Haines promptly disappeared. By a strange quirk of fate Parlophone did release an album of the ensembles' additional recordings. Under the Norman Haines Band banner, entitled 'Den Of Iniquity'. Radioactive Records has returned 'We Are Everything' to its spiritual roots at Abbey Road where it was mastered from the original analogue 1/4 tapes by Steve Rooke for this 2004 180g reissue. Limited edition.
The vinyl is MINT- and has only ever been played just twice on a decent turntable since new. The white labels are mint and the poly-lined sleeve is very good+++ with no splits. All pictures are of the actual item for sale. Please check out my other items!
