LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

jewel case cd

Andromeda, a powerful, promising trio from the late Sixties, was fronted by an excellent lead guitarist, the late John Du Cann. They blended psychedelia with heavy rock and drew enthusiastic support from famed radio DJ John Peel. Their self-titled album, first issued in 1969, is packed exciting tracks like ‘Too Old’, ‘The Day Of Change’ and extended arrangements of ‘Turns To Dust’ and ‘Return To Sanity’. Sadly, Andromeda broke up shortly after the album’s release and the full story of the band and its fate is told by Chris Welch in the extensive CD liner notes. Don’t miss this rare and unique album by a band once predicted to become giants of progressive rock. Originally released in 1969
