a first pressing of the rare self-titled lp by AQUILA as released on RCA Victor LSP 10 307 in 1970 in Germany. It comes in the original gatefold cover.
The origins of Aquila lie in the Welsh psychedelic proto-progressive outfit Blonde On Blonde. In fact the founder of Blonde On Blonde, named after the famous Bob Dylan album, was a certain Ralph Denyer who in 1970 left the same band he had founded whilst their album Rebirth was about to be released. When one compares the works of Blonde On Blonde, it seems that Denyer wished to move away from the Psychedelic drenched rock that Blonde On Blonde were playing and move further towards a progressive style that combined influences of Rhythm & Blues and Jazz. The new vehicle for Denyer's work was called Aquila, though the group only released one album during their very brief history, the 1970 self-titled album released on the RCA label. The line-up consisted of James Smith (drums, percussion), Martin Woodward (Hammond organ), George "Snakes" Lee (flute, saxophones) and Phil Childs (bass, piano). Denyer took care of guitars and vocals and wrote all compositions of the band. Musically the group played a straight forward progressive rock with tinges of jazz provided mainly by Lee's playing..
This is a GUARANTEED 100% original first pressing!!

In an attempt to show the best possible pictures of lp's I am putting up for auction I use a large format scanner. This enables me to provide potential buyers with a GREAT view of the item. Unfortunately the scanner can not contain all of the surface of the lp; a small part of about 1,25 cm/0.5 inch is missing!
