LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Aquila was formed in 1970 by Welsh guitarist/vocalist Ralph Denyer, who had just left Blonde On Blonde. Aquila's debut, which remained their only long player - got released in the same year is a delicious mix of progressive rock, psych-pop sensibility, a Traffic-like funkiness, and pastoral country-rock.

Produced by Nirvana's Patrick Campbell-Lyons and powered by Denyer's rugged vocal delivery, Aquila unfairly faded into obscurity rather quickly but has been sought after by collectors for over 30 years.
