Obscure British prog-rock band Mighty Baby evolved from a mod group called The Action, but moved heavily into experimental psychedelia in 1969, when they cut an incredible debut for the Head label. Glastonbury Fayre Festival 1971 captures the legendary group in live action, "A Blanket In My Muesli" being a free-form jam that remains their best-loved effort; "India" is a similarly hefty instrumental mega-jam with lilting flute amidst the bluesy guitar work, and there are awesome renditions of "Virgin Spring," "Devil's Whisper," and "Lazy Days." If you like your prog thoughtful, complex, and multi-layered, this one's for you! Licensed from Cherry Red.

2023 restock. Trading Places present a reissue of Mighty Baby's A Jug Of Love, originally released in 1971. Evolving from London Mod act The Action, Mighty Baby signed to Parlophone on the reputation of their live sets, featuring guitarist Alan King, bassist Mike Evans, and drummer Roger Powell, with former Savoy Brown guitarist Martin Stone and keyboardist/sax player Ian Whiteman joining after. Their 1969 debut moved into heavy psych and sophomore set A Jug Of Love took semi-acoustic form, blending bluesy folk and a touch of North African spice into their psychedelic prog, the style reminiscent of the Grateful Dead, but very much their own. An unsung masterpiece, feted by Julian Cope. 180 gram vinyl; includes lyrics insert. Licensed by Cherry Red.

2023 repress. Trading Places present a reissue of Mighty Baby's self-titled album, originally released in 1969. The obscure British prog band Mighty Baby evolved from an earlier group called The Action, a London Mod act that signed to Parlophone after building a strong live reputation, with guitarist Alan King, bassist Mike Evans and drummer Roger Powell, later expanded to include former Savoy Brown guitarist Martin Stone and keyboardist/sax player, Ian Whiteman. Moving heavily into experimental psychedelia in 1969, they cut this incredible debut album for the Head label, which is rightly hailed as one of the greatest psychedelic records of all time. With jazz, blues and improvisational references abounding, tracks like "Egyptian Tomb" and "House Without Windows", the latter with its dramatic stereo drum panning, demonstrate why this disc is such a lost classic. 180 gram vinyl; gatefold sleeve. Licensed by Cherry Red.

FLASH 1001CD

By the summer of 1971, Mighty Baby had shed their psychedelic trappings and taken a more spiritual direction. Newly signed to Mike Vernon's Blue Horizon label, they prepared their second and final album, A Jug of Love, in a basement on Harley Road, North London, ahead of sessions in Sound Techniques that July and August. This is the only known recording of them in rehearsal. Taped on Ian Whiteman's Revox with a single microphone, it's entirely instrumental and offers a remarkable insight into the workings of one of Britain's best-loved underground bands at the peak of their powers. It's presented here complete with detailed background notes and rare images.

By the summer of 1971 Mighty Baby had shed their psychedelic trappings and taken a more spiritual, reflective approach. Newly signed to Mike Vernon's Blue Horizon label, they prepared the material for their second and final album, A Jug of Love (SBR 5026LP), in a basement on Harley Road, North London, ahead of sessions in Sound Techniques that July and August. This is the only known recording of them in rehearsal.

Heavyweight embossed gatefold sleeve containing LP pressed on 180-gram vinyl, 7" in picture sleeve featuring "Messages" and "Ancient Traveller," facsimile postcard insert, and facsimile 1969 shop poster.

Previously released on CD by Sunbeam, now issued as a 180 gram double vinyl release. Mighty Baby are firmly established as one of the best-loved underground bands in British rock history. Combining elements of blues, folk, jazz and psychedelia, their unique brand of experimental rock n' roll is brilliantly captured on these rare recordings, finally given an official release here. Three tracks were captured live at a gig supporting U.S. legends Love in March 1970, while the remainder were taped soon afterwards at London's Olympic Studios. Finding the band midway between the blazing psychedelia of their self-titled November 1969 debut and the mellower sounds of their October 1971 swan song A Jug of Love, the set comes complete with sleevenotes, rare photographs and an introduction from their bassist, Michael Evans, making it simply essential for all fans of the band.
