JAM

This was never intended for album release - instead, it was a jam session recorded by Arthur Brown with his new band, Kingdom Come, to see if they could land a record deal. Nonetheless, it emerged via Voiceprint in 1995, and more recently it's become available again thanks to Esoteric's boxed set Eternal Messenger, which collects this, the three "official" Kingdom Come albums, and some BBC sessions in one complete package.

Still, if you are into some mostly-improvised psychedelic freakout music, this ain't half bad - a British space rock equivalent of the sort of thing which the early Krautrock groups were up to at around the same time, with eerie vocals from Arthur adding additional spice. This sort of thing is an acquired taste, and if you dislike improvisational psychedelic/space rock in general you will likely not enjoy this - but if you dig a bit of improvisational psych now and again, this is a pretty good example of the format.
