Review by Dave Sleger
Spirogyra was an early-'70s progressive, psychedelic folk group fronted by vocalists Barbara Gaskin and Martin Cockerham. This was their third and final album, and it is distinguished by Gaskin's flitting vocals and Cockerham's madcap delivery. At times, their tendency to drift resembles the Incredible String Band with Gaskin being the equivalent of Robin Williamson. Spirogyra rocks with considerably more regularity than ISB but they're equally esoteric, nevertheless. Cockerham even does a convincing imitation of Hunky Dory-era David Bowie on "The Sergant Says," and his manic side is most evident in the middle passage of the three-part epic "In the Western World." This is a difficult album to classify and was as problematic to promote, given its conspicuous absence in the U.S. market.
I am going through my collection and digitally archiving it album by album.Some I no longer have the want or feel the need to continue to have in my collection.If you are winning bidder and wish to find out about the availability of a digital archives of these albums,please contact me after auction ends.This auction is for the albums only,unless stated other wise.Low starting bid because I love vinyl and I love music,and this is either a duplicate of something already in my collection,something from my collection that I no longer or never did listen to,or just"not my cup of tea".Vinyl was made to be spun and loved and I believe it should be in the possession of someone who will appreciate and enjoy it.I beleve if it's not being played it's being wasted. Bid with confidence.Check my Feedback for positive comments about my grading and packaging.Please E-Mail with any and all questions. Thanks for looking and have a good and peaceful day
