Quintessence

Thinking about proto -Prog bands, was wondering about  Quintessence , Am only really familiar with album 'In Blissful Company' from 1969. Very influenced by Psychedelia , Jazz, Eastern mysticism, played quite long tracks. 'In Blissful Company' opens with a song about giants . Apparently they played the first two Glastonbury Fayres.

Used to have the first 2 on original vinyl...sadly I traded them off for something else.....wish I had them back.

I love to Dive Deep into this classic Quintessence album from 1970.....

It is rather good.  I really like the way the band seem to  treat their music as some sort of vehicle to change the spiritual consciousness of the listener.  I don't think that any band or artist would attempt such an undertaking now.  [QUOTE=Psychedelic Paul] I love to Dive Deep into this classic Quintessence album from 1970.....

If you like the sound of Quintessence, then I think you'll like this album too.....
