Jerusalem vinyl reissue!


Picked this one up last month on a label I've never heard from before - Rockadrome. Reissue of a 1972 Deram record produced by Deep Purple's Ian Gillan.

Hell of a good record, very much in the Purple/Uriah Heep vein, very well played and sung, not exactly a lost masterpiece but more of a byway from an era where lots of great bands came and went, leaving behind minor gems like this one, that are now being resurrected by enterprising companies.

Excellent pressing. Excellent sound - whatever the source (I suspect analog) it's a very present, clear and warm sound that suits the music very well. I a way, records like this are far more interesting than another reissue of well tread material, and so I'm pleased to give this one 4 doobies and recommend the trip back 40 years.
