    Posted: August 24 2015 at 14:21
Can anyone help me please? I'm trying to trace an album from the late sixties, unfortunately I cannot remember the name of the artist, or the album, Sorry!!
What I do recall, is that one side of the album is called Love and the other side is called The City, one of them is Parts 1-4 and the other Parts 1-5. I also think that it may have been possibly a King Crimson spin off!

Not much to go on I know, but I live in hope that someone out there can help.

Many thanks

Tom

Well...there are two long multi-part  'suites' on Mcdonald and Giles (from Crimson) which might be the album you are referring to but the word Love and City are not the titles.
I don't know of any other except Sinfield's (original lyricist for Crimson) album 'Still' and it was not the same titles either nor a multi-part format.

Thanks Steve,

I do have the Macdonald and Giles album and am also aware of "Still" I may be wrong in thinking that there is a link with King Crimson, but it was certainly around the same time and definitely a prog album.

But many thanks for your help.

Cheers
Tom

I think it might be Mark-Almond's namesake album, released in 1971:

Hi,
Thanks for your help, but it's not that one. It only had one track on each side; Love and The City, I also think it would have been released around 1968 ish!

But many thanks anyway!

Cheers

Tom

If you could give a sense of how the music sounded it might make it easier -

It would wouldn't it ?

This is ProgWorld FFS, is Close to the Edge a single piece in four parts or four songs ?

btw ..... thank you Paulinidgo for coming up with the MA album. Havn't listened to any of their stuff in decades, much of it was extremely enjoyable.

Have to agree. Looked around the interwebz and nothing else comes close.
