Pluto (LP Coloured Vinyl) [VINYL]

LP Coloured Vinyl / 180 gm Audiophile Vinyl / LIMITED NUMBERED EDITION ON TRANSLUCENT MAGENTA COLOURED VINYL / Pluto, although not necessarily one of those bands who spring immediately to mind as having been a seminal influence on the weaving of rock music’s tapestry, remain an excellent, if little-known and much underrated band. The band’s only album Pluto (originally released on the Dawn label back in November 1971) has, during the latter half of the ‘90s, become a much sought-after item in the ever-expanding underground/progressive sector of the record collectors’ market. Conceived initially by guitarist Paul Gardner and taking their name from the Disney cartoon character, they were formed in North London in 1970. The key members were Gardner and Alan Warner, two highly experienced campaigners from widely disparate musical backgrounds. The album is a nice mix of hard rock, progressive rock and blues rock elements. The song writing is pretty solid and there are no fillers included. This lone Pluto LP is easy to recommend for those who like the early 70’s hard rock bands. Pluto is available as a limited numbered edition on translucent magenta coloured vinyl / Tracklist: Side A: 1. Crossfire 2. And My Old Rocking Horse 3. Down And Out 4. She’s Innocent 5.
