More Info:
Limited gold colored vinyl LP pressing. Includes digital download. The second of three ground breaking albums by the ultimate power trio who morphed blues into hard rock and spawned punk. A much-loved opus with a side-long concept piece. A bona fide inspirational rock classic. "Tony McPhee has turned to anarchic paranoid battlegrounds of the mind for inspiration," Melody Maker. And a second side that delivers the mighty 'Cherry Red', McPhee's take on The Beatles' 'A Day In the Life', a sideswipe at junk food and a glorious interpretation of John Lee Hooker's 'Groundhogs Blues'. "Both musically and lyrically, 'Split' speaks for a lost time, a nomad time when ideals took to the hoof and musicians stayed on the road rather than confront the fact that the '60s 'war' had been lost." Julian Cope // "Murky, fuzzy, and wisely esoteric." AllMusic. // "Supercharged, fractured and raging." MOJO // Remastered and packaged with bonus tracks on the download (out-takes from the original sessions that spawned this spontaneous monster).
