I stumbled across these guys on Youtube, of all places. Great early English dark prog-jazz. Picked up their debut - it's very impressive, if somewhat indicative of 1970.
Check out a track:

They do sound like early, bluesy jazz-rock a la Colosseum; I'll alert the Jazz-Rock/Fusion team first, though I'm not sure 100% they'll accept it. Great find!

I think that they deserves to be in PA, i thought thar they already was.
The Tapestry Of Delights:
From Birmingham, this act evolved out of the remnants of Bakerloo
and were heralded by their management as the follow-up to Black
Sabbath. Their album, like most releases on this label, has become a
minor collectable and is a Van der Graaf Generator-style
progressive, housed in an odd gatefold sleeve. The vocalist is strongly
influenced by Family's Roger Chapman whilst their music is strong,
pleasant, jazz rock.

I was just reading Vernon Joynson's book Tapestry of Delights and found this band HANNIBAL that for some reason was soon forgotten after Lozlan suggested them 2½ years ago. So, without hearing (or even thinking it's up to my taste anyway) I guess it belongs either to Heavy Prog or JR/F.

Looks as if it was rejected by JR/F in November 2010.
