ALBUM REVIEW
Esoteric Recordings are happy to announce the release of this 'Lost Classic' of Progressive rock, the sole offering by the National Head Band. Formed in 1969 from the ashes of Liverpudlian band The Business, 'Albert 1', released in 1971, featured future Thin Lizzy, Caravan & Camel keyboard player Jan Schelhaas, future Uriah Heep drummer Lee Kerslake, guitarist Neil Ford and bass guiatrist David Paull (soon to join Jonesy). Produced by Yes and Elp engineer Eddie Offord, the album features wonderful material such as 'Got No Time' and 'Mister Jesus'. 'Albert 1' is one of the few progressive albums of note not receive an officially sanctioned release until now.
