The only album I know is 'Tales from the archives of oblivion'. I liked the (no doubt dated) effects. Are the other albums similar?

Would be nice if any reply was about music.

Apparently there's a short film directed by Roman Polanski, music by Roy Harper and performed by Gary Glitter.

Promo poster by Rolf Harris.

Asking about music not film.
In reply to Cog: Don't know the album title but "Hells Angels" is a top notch track. I Went to an Edgar Broughton concert at Salford Uni in the late 60s and afterwards this guy turned up and did an impromptu set that included this track. Just him and an amp - it was awesome - real troubadour!

Find the track 'The tallest tree' on YouTube.
One of his more modern numbers.

And yet we still hear Led Zeppellin on the radio all the time - why the double standards ?
In reply to cb294:
Very cool. Stormcock is one of the most important albums ever made.

What double standards are you referring to?

Flat Baroque and Berserk is a good album.
In reply to Jonny2vests:
It did.

Thanks
In reply to blondel: Indeed, though the rambling monologue before the excellent I Hate The White Man is a bit tedious.

The greatest hits CD Counter Culture has that track without the rambling intro and many other good things too and would be a good place to start to get to know his music.

Does it have Hell's Angels without the daft laughing at the end?

Presumably Bill Wyman will be awaiting a knock on the door then.

In reply to Cog: Stormcock is probably my favourite, though I also really like Greenman, Jugula, and the Dream Society. Death and Glory is great too.
In reply to Cog: I love most of his stuff. Must work up a playlist of my favourite tracks.
