Description
Hapshash And The Coloured Coat ?– Featuring The Human Host And The Heavy Metal Kids
Hapshash and the Coloured Coat was an influential British graphic design and avant-garde musical partnership in the late 1960s, consisting of Michael English and Nigel Waymouth. The pair produced popular psychedelic posters, and two albums of underground music. Hapshash And The Coloured Coat ?– Featuring The Human Host And The Heavy Metal Kids is the first of these, released in 1967 on this beautiful first press on red vinyl. The silkscreen printed posters created by the pair advertised underground "happenings", clubs and concerts in London, and became so popular at the time that they helped launch the commercial sale of posters as art, initially in fashionable stores such as the Indica Bookshop and Carnaby Street boutiques. This, their first album of psychedelic music, produced by a collective in early 1967 and including many famous names, is now seen as being influential on the early works of Amon Duul and other pioneers of German ‘Krautrock’, as well as inspiring sections of the Rolling Stones' Their Satanic Majesties Request album.
