\                                                           UK - Night Wings

  Deluxe limited edition British production of unreleased circa 1970 thrilling psych artifact with prog edges, psych deliveroes, and high order Beatles like song qualities with infectious hooks...previous to this release  it was known to exist only as a hideously rare acetate valued at $2000 or so (over under) ... Anyway, the plans for the retail 1970 UK release was surprisingly aborted, leaving consumors to wait nearly 40 years for the light of day of release and in what amounts to an interesting British collectible, having underground vibes mixed with catchy poprock/psych sensibilities -- or --> more 1970 private-press madness in a swirl of organ, impassioned vocals and crunching chords that sounds like it has all the right moves.   The first authorized issue of one of the best English albums on the edge between psychedelia and progressive: Five Day Rain. This band formed in late '68 as Iron Prophet, a heavy trio comprising Rick Sharpe, Clive Shepherd and Dick Hawkes. They changed their name to Five Day Rain in early 1970, with the arrival of Graham Maitland and the beginning of the recordings we are presenting here. The usual disagreement between musicians, management and producers led the album to be shelved (only a few acetates were pressed) and the band to split. Rick Sharpe, Shepherd and Maitland formed the short-lived Studd Pump before taking separate ways, with Sharpe joining rockers Streak and Maitland resurfacing with Glencoe.   Five Day Rain was issued for the first time on CD a dozen years ago, with nice John Hurford artwork made for International Times magazine, but without both musicians and illustrator permit. This official issue, made with the essential contribution of Five Day Rain's  Rick Sharpe, uses the original running order and is enriched by a Bob Dylan cover ('Too Much Of Nothing'). The Factory / Fleur de Lys connected early '70s UK psych monsters with all the right moves. Sounds like the aforementioned bands with a dash of Ogden-period Small Faces. Great guitar work particularly on the long trippy instrumental 'Rough Cut Marmalade'.
