Hatfield and the North - Lobster in Cleavage Probe

Excellent band from the Canterbury school, with extreme explored musicianship, led by the ex CARAVAN leader and bass player Richard Sinclair. His strong and characteristic vocals add a lot to the music, already rich in instrumentation. Keyboardist Dave Stewart is another big player here, bringing up the atmosphere with his valve saturation driven keyboard sounds.

Agreed. But both "The Rotter's Club" and their self titled first are easily the best albums of the mid 70s. Basically "TRC" is probably the next step the average prog fan should take into exploring Canterbury after CARAVAN's best albums. This is outstanding music - Canterbury at its best!

yep, I had this in my head, starts at 1.45 bass intro is haunting, then the keyboard to organ to drums/ a fabulous intro that is with my from 70's till this moment that I hear it again. Thanks for the upload, I had the album.

I like Egg's Prelude better. Actually Egg is just generally better than Hatfield, but that's just me.

Would love to hear the "Northettes" girls sing a lot more - explore more killer harmonies. So blood-pressure-lowering those girls with beauty-voices.

Hatfield fixed me when I was broken. God loves this music.

Thanks to Pip Pyle, the drummer here, such a crazy and brilliant player, he plaied in most of the important canterbury bands and he is beloved by all the people that knew him, he passed away in 2006 but still living in our hearts
