DEEP PURPLE-COME TASTE THE BAND-1975-First UK press - PURPLE REC. - TPSA7515 of the matrix A-1U/B-1U. Rare British original cult album. Come Taste the Band is the tenth Studio album Deep Purple, released in October 1975. The first and only album (not counting live), recorded in the composition of Mark IV.

ARKTIS-ARKTIS TAPES-1975-FIRST PRESS GERMANY-BON BON-BBR7502. Mega rare short-run original of one of the key prog albums of the 70s. Arktis - Arktis Tapes 1975. The second album of the band from Bonn. Unfortunately, the first album did not find a "buyer", and in 1974, with the assistance of Konrad Planck, Arktis recorded a second demo album, released in may 1975 with a circulation of 500 copies-again for promotion purposes. The music here is somewhat restrained, but no less attractive and covering. In this music, you can feel not only a craving for art-rock (prolonged instrumental pieces), but also the sprouts of guitar technique, characteristic of what in the next decade was called "heavy metal". One critic wrote a scathing note: If such an album had been released in 1969 or 1970, they would have been at the top with Black Sabbath and LED ZEPPELIN , and now the time is gone. "Tapes" suffered the fate of the first Arktis album, and Blahut disbanded the band. ...more

QUEEN-SHEER HEART ATTACK-1974-FIRST PRESS UK-EMI-EMC3061. Of the matrix A-4U/B-1U. Stamper 1HO/1OO (Dream!) Mega rare British copy of the original with a unique b-1U second-side matrix. Cover of the first thousand copies of the print ( without TRIDENT LOGO and CREST LOGO). Research leads to the idea that most likely on this combination of matrices was launched the first edition of 300 pieces and only then moved to the combinations 3/3, 3/4, 4/4. About the album: The first fame, as well as commercial success, came to the group with this record, and the song "Killer Queen" became their first big hit, reaching number two in England. The album itself also reached number two in the UK and number 12 on the 1975 Billboard charts. ...more
