Comments and Reviews


wordnwot 2nd Jan 2018		The 1970's Aldershot was a rich picking ground treasure trove for me and many valuable bits of vinyl. Sadly Kaleidoscope was not one of them, I had never heard of them before 45cat came along and I blame BBC Radio 1 for that, as I listened all throught the mid to late sixties into 1970's and their music never crossed my path. One particular item that sticks in my mind is >>>>>>



moondog 12th Jul 2017		On a Friday in the late 70s I walked into a record shop in Aldershot which was closing down the following day. There were just a dozen or so LPs left in the racks. Unknown to me was Faintly Blowing so I bought it for 25p. When I played it I was stunned that such a record could be so unknown and unwanted - why else would it be still there when almost all others had gone? It was a gem of a find. I still have it - mint and with no watermark!

wordnwot 9th Dec 2013		Highly regarded by fontana company wigs, full colour glossy gatefold album sleeve design was lavished on this release and for good reason since the content is exquisite. Alas to no avail, for Kaleidoscope, yet again the gods of justice and success were looking the other way and it sunk the same way as the other releases had. The world was changing towards noisier more punchy bands that were delivering progressive, seat of the pants, riff crunchers that was catching the imagination of the album buying youngsters. Psychedelicate folky tunes were on the wain. Judging by its rarity, this album sold perhaps a few thousand top whack! The music quality coupled with scarcity continues to make this very desirable to vinyl collectors.
