ZODIAC - MUSIC IN THE UNIVERSE -1983-FIRST PRESS USSR-MELODIA-C6018365-6. A rare original of a cult album. Music in the Universe is the second studio album by the instrumental rock band Zodiac, released in 1982. The disc is designed in the space rock style. The front side of the envelope has two versions - with the image of the band members in spacesuits on the background of the cover (most likely a limited edition or export version), and without the image of the band members. On the reverse side of the disc there is an introductory speech by A. Baumanis. The compositions "Laser Illumination", "Silver Dream", "In the Light of Saturn" and "Flight over El Dorado" were written for the short documentary "Star Palette", where they were used in parts. The song "The Other Side of the Sky" was originally called "Karate", but the subsequent persecution of this sport forced the name of the track to be changed. The track "Mysterious Galaxy" was used in the animated film "The Meeting" (1984, produced by Kyivnauchfilm), in the TV show "Sportloto", as well as in the program "Search" on Russian Radio. According to the Melodiya company, 1,703,800 copies of the record were sold by August 26, 1983.
The vinyl record is in new condition - NMINT/ARCHIVE. The cover is matte in top condition with conditional traces of storage - NMINT/ARCHIVE.

WARHORSE-WARHORSE-1970-THE FIRST UK PRESS-VERTIGO SWIRL-6360015. A mega rare original of the first album by the iconic British prog band. Warhorse is a band formed by ex-Deep Purple bassist Nick Simper. The band existed from 1970 to 1974 (partial reunions in 1985, 2005). The band's sound was close to the style of the early Deep Purple. After his forced departure from Deep Purple, Nick Simper started organizing a new band. Initially, he planned to involve well-known musicians Albert Lee and Mick Underwood in the collaboration, but this alliance did not take place. The new band was based on guitarist Jed Pack and drummer Mac Poole, musicians who played with Simper in the accompanying Marsha Hunt line—up. The new band also includes vocalist Ashley Holt and keyboardist Rick Wakeman. The band received the name "Iron Horse", which was soon changed to "Warhorse". Wakeman proved to be an unreliable partner and left the band in April, before the band had even made any recordings. Instead, keyboardist Frank Wilson was recruited into the band, with whom the debut demo "Miss Jane" was made. In 1970, the band signed a contract with Phonograms, a division of Vertigo Records, and began recording their debut album. The Warhorse album was released in November 1970. The song "St. Louis" (a cover of "Easybeats") was released as a single and was most popular with the public. The album itself was also a success, but mostly in continental Europe, in particular in Germany. The band toured extensively for the next year and a half. ...more
