BB Lucky Dip #194

BB Lucky Dip #194

Lucky Dip's will be a mystery gift to those who choose to pick them up. 


Today's links: VERTIGO Albums    Part 21 (201 - 210)


“… it was clear that nobody was expecting anything like this. Many wouldn’t have heard any prog rock before or had only heard the kind of prog that gave the genre a bad name. This was a performance to convert the sceptics.” ...Bob Leiser

=============================================

Vertigo Records is a record company that originated in the United Kingdom. It was a subsidiary of the Philips/Phonogram record label, launched in 1969 to specialise in progressive rock and other non-mainstream musical styles. Today it is operated by Universal Music Germany, and the UK catalogue was folded into Mercury Records, which was absorbed in 2013 by Virgin EMI Records, which was renamed back to EMI Records in June 2020.

      Good to hear, lemonflag.
      These Vertigo sets always offer nice surprises. It's fun to revisit music we haven't heard in a long time.
      Cheers.

      Hi joaoabel,
      All of those numbers are indeed missing albums as I don't have that particular album with the exception of 156 which was posted previously (144)
      I hope someone can offer the missing albums.
      Cheers.

      Hi joaoabel.
      The album is Van der Graaf Generator - The Aerosol Grey Machine [1974] (Netherlands). It has been posted previously as #144. 156 is the same album so I didn't repeat it.
      Cheers.
