LP / GNIDROLOG , LADY LAKE / RARE PSYCH PROG . FIRST PRIVATE PRESS UK . 1972
COVER AND LP EXCELLENT CONDITION Lady Lake is the Second Album by the British Progressive Rock Band Gnidrolog. In 1969, Twins Colin and Stewart Goldring formed a Progressive Rock Band and started recruiting Musicians, Nigel Pegrum came from Spice (who would eventually evolve into the famous Band Uriah Heep), Peter "Mars" Cowling, John Earle and Charlotte Fendrich. Their hard to pronounce name, Gnidrolog, is a reverse and slightly changed modification of the Twins name, Goldring. I haven't found much information about them, so there is quite an hiatus between the forming and 1972 when they released their Debut and this one Lady Lake, one after the other, and disbanding quickly after, when they were faced with no commercial success. They had the chance to share the stage with such Rock legends as King Crimson, Colosseum, Gentle Giant and Soft Machine. When Gnidrolog was done with the Goldring Twins formed the Punk Band Pork Dukes and Pegrum joined Steeleye Span, a quite different sound from what is shown here. In 1999 they got back together and in the next year, 2000, released the Third Album by the Band. 1999 was also the year that saw the re-edition of the Album on CD Format. Best Tracks - "I Could Never Be A Soldier", "Ship", "Lady Lake" and "Social Embarrassment". This is much better that i expected, most of the songs are 5 stars, and the fact that instead of using an overload of Keyboards, which most of Progressive Bands used, they focused mostly on Flute (fantastic, and almost comparable to what Ian Anderson did on Jethro Tull) and Saxophone. It is a fantastic Album, definitively worth a listen.
