formed after the legendary Steve Hillage left their previous band. This trio is pretty commonly regarded in the Prog And then we get to a cover of Fugue In D Minor by good ol' Joseph Bach. This is a great rendition of an already classic composition, the drums really compliment well with the melody as always. Yeah, this is an obvious 5/5. energetic high-light. After that Egg goes fully avant-prog on the listener with the plain boring soundscape 'Boilk' on as keyboardist for his new project Khan, whereas Clive Brooks joined Groundhogs. Campbell on the Overall I think this is a pretty meh debut that like the band's different name earlier album, Arzachel represents a point in time before these artists found their own sound. Fortunately, Egg released two follow up albums both of which are amazing works of art full of Eggs own identity.

You Are All Princes has nothing of merit, it is woefully forgettable. It's presence fails to bring this album out of the bad territory. and is one of the better keyboardist of the genre. On this album we get to hear two great psychedelic and jazzy calculated) these are about 2 minutes and 26 seconds worth of music lost due to filler and adding an unnecessary

this record sounds way too unfinished and random to be considered that worthwhile. I actually wanted to likeThen we go to the second song While Growing My Hair, which technically is the "First" song in the album if you consider Bulb an intro. This song is a simple tune with a really groovy vibe thanks to the organs from Dave Steward, and with the help of drummer Clive Brook with his equally groovy drumming. Overall, this is a really good song that sets the vibe of the album. 4/5 Formed in 1969 in London, UK (as Uriel) - Disbanded in 1972 - Reformed in 1974 only for recording sessions We continue with They Laughed When I Sat Down At The Piano... And oh man, this song really hits hard for some reason. The melancholic piano meddling along side the distorded guitar wails really give a chilling tune to this song. This interlude is an easy 5/5. We close off Side 1 with Boilk, a very experimental piece that also goes really well if played after McGillicudie. I have little words to describe how good this Mellotronic sounding interlude is, so i'm gonna rate it 4/5.

scene as a very weird, but interesting band from Canterbury that would do something highly different from their Egg is one of my personal favorite Prog/Canterbury bands of all time, and it all starts with their self titled debut album. Overall this single is a solid 2/5, would not recommend, definitely listen to an Egg/Arzachel album instead. Keyboardist Dave Stewart would also play with Steve Hillage on Kahn's 'Space Shanty' album (a favorite of mine)

Maurice Cambridge on clarinet, Stephen Solloway on flute, Christ Palmer on bassoon and Mont Campbell nine useless minutes of 'Boilk' this would have still been a worthy addition to most prog collections, but as it is;
