Andromeda was the band that John Du Cann was immediately prior to him joining Atomic Rooster. As
well as a full band biog. and loads of photos, this double CD contains all of their hard to find and much
collected album, along with some lives tracks, demos, and a session from John Peel's Top Gear. The
line-up was John (guitar/vocals), Mick Hawksworth (bass) and Jack Collins (who was replaced by Ian
McLane) (drums).I know that this is hard to find music but thankfully in this case it is because not enough albums were pressed and people wanted to hear the music instead of collecting just because it is rare. Although it is very dated, the music on here is very interesting. There were no keyboards, but Andromeda would have fitted in quite happily with the prog explosion that was going on at the time. In fact, I have to say that I enjoyed this more than the album of solo material that was released by John through Angel Air recently. If prog/psyche is what you want then look no further as the authentic stuff is here. A goody. Originally appeared in Feedback #57
