Oliver - Standing Stone

Facts Prog Temple present a reissue of the sole album by Oliver Chaplin, Standing Stone, originally released 1974. Recorded on a farm in rural Wales without a thought to commercial considerations, Standing Stone melds Delta blues with biting psychedelic guitar, acid folk and a range of production effects (by Oliver's brother Chris, an engineer who'd worked on Jimi Hendrix's BBC sessions). The result is a unique blast of counter-cultural energy - a work of peculiar genius. Ultra-rare in it's original vinyl incarnation, it makes it's long overdue return to CD here.
