Description

    "Cartoone" Cartoone Debut Lp Studio album by Cartoone Featuring Jimmy Page

Cartoone 1969 (1st) Debut Lp By Cartoone. 

The album is notable for featuring Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin on guitar.

The album has an inside cover which contains the full lyrics of the songs on the right and the following note from June Harris: "There's a new kind of musical excitement, and it's coming from this remarkable album by four boys from England (formerly Scotland) called Cartoone, more specifically Derek Creigan, Mike Allison, Charles Mo Trowers and Chick E. Coffils. You can't put a tag on the music within these twelve tracks, but they do provide an excellent illustration of the joint capabilities of Cartoone as a self contained unit who write and perform all their own material. Cartoone has created a sound of its own - Melodic, poetic and with great attention paid to detail. It's a fresh, different sound, as new as the group itself. Listen. Cartoone is saying something which clearly needs no further explanation."

Cartoone formed in 1967 from a band called The Chevlons. Cartoone toured all over Scotland. In 1968, the band moved to London in hope of landing a recording contract. Through Lulu they contacted songwriter Mark London (husband of Lulu's manager Marion Massey) and showed him some of the songs they had written. London was impressed with the band and their songs and took them into a recording studio  London then took tracks to Ahmet Ertegün and Jerry Wexler of Atlantic Records, whosigned Cartoone to a deal. They were the first British rock band to sign with Atlantic, predating Led Zeppelin by several months.
