Motiffe - Motiffe 1971,UK- Psychedelic Progressive Rock This super rare early '70s UK progressive psych private pressing was only recently located and raved about in Record Collector.... Long tracks with guitar, flute, percussion bass, sax etc. similar to King Crimson, Colosseum... The band was formed in the band's hometown of St Albans in the 71 th year. From well-known in the group was John Grimaldi (he and the author of almost all the tracks), which later became part of Argent. In the 72nd, they recorded an album, which publishes Deroy Sound (Deroy 777-A (B)) in the amount of unique (!!) instance ... "A very rare album (possibly only one copy ever made) by a St. Albans band who apparently split up by the time the end product was 'released'. Housed in a plain sleeve, it contained five tracks of progressive rock with typically pretentious titles: Grotesque Piece, Analogy, Life Reciprocal, To George and Mind And Body and is reputed to contain some superb guitar playing. King Crimson, Jade Warrior, Jimi Hendrix and early Pink Floyd were obvious influences." (Djalma) Supposedly only 2 known copies of this release exist. Originally released in 1972 on Deroy.
Tracks 01.Grotesque Piece (0:00) 02.Analogy (5:18) 03.Life Reciprocal (11:36) 04.To George (22:08) 05.Mind & Body (30:33) Personnel: - Mick Avery (piano) - Quentin Bryar (saxophone) - John Grimaldi (guitar) - Mark Pasterfield (drums, percussion) - Ian Wilson (vocals, flute)
