This strange little record, reputed to have sold fewer than 500 copies during its initial run, was the first and only LP released by proto-King Crimson trio Giles, Giles & Fripp, formed when the Giles brothers placed an ad for a singing organist and got a non-singing guitarist instead.
The group is technically a power trio, but the music they play hardly has much connection to progressive rock, much less rock rock. This very intriguing cult-album consists largely of catchy lite-pop with all manner of strings, choirs, and occasional surprising guitar licks. Original and extremely appealing!
