LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

180-gram vinyl heavy carton gatefold sleeve.

High Tide were part of the wave of 'progressive underground' bands which grew up in Britain in the late sixties. Formed in Ladbroke Grove, London in 1969, the band featured the intense guitar playing of TONY HILL (ex MISUNDERSTOOD), the Violin and Keyboard skills of SIMON HOUSE (later to join the THIRD EAR BAND and then HAWKWIND), bassist PETE PAVLI and drummer ROGER HADDEN. Signing to LIBERTY RECORDS soon after formation, the band recorded SEA SHANTIES at Olympic studios, an album featuring some of the heaviest gothic rock recorded at that time.

This album contains the non-LP unreleased track DILEMMA
