Description
A very nice copy of this first pressing of the band's second album. Some mild wear to the sleeve, this album's sleeve seems particularly prone to wear, but it is very good with no damage. Vinyl is excellent and very clean. One light mark on side one. GREAT COPY.
I CAN SEND DIRECT TO ANY COUNTRY, SO IF YOU NEED ME TO THEN I CAN QUOTE FOR DIRECT POSTAGE. OTHERWISE I HAVE INCLUDED EBAY GLOBAL SHIPPING.
"Death Walks Behind You is the second studio album by British rock band Atomic Rooster. It was their first album to receive US release, albeit in a different sleeve. It is commonly thought of as the archetypal Atomic Rooster album, recorded by the 'classic' line-up of Vincent Crane, John Du Cann and Paul Hammond. It is certainly, critically and commercially, their most successful album and often hailed as a classic of the progressive rock genre. It also produced the hit single "Tomorrow Night" (UK number 11), which became one of the band's best-known songs. The album's cover features the William Blake monotype Nebuchadnezzar. Band photos were taken at Churchfield Road Cemetery, Acton W3, by former actor-turned photographer, Richard Lyon.
The title track was covered on record in 1992 by Paradise Lost, in 2000 by Bigelf (on their album Money Machine) and in 2012 by Swedish death metal band NonExist."
