22-track digitally remastered 2-CD album set - Scottish heavy rock
band The Writing On The Wall made it big on the underground rock
scene in the late 1960's through a highly dramatic stageact. The
Middle Earth club launched a label with this maniacal rock band as
lead off act, releasing a single and LP in 1969, which together now
form CD 1 of this set. Although their full second LP was never
released, from it came the bands most fully realised creation, the
song 'Buffalo', which manages at turns to be both menacing & elegiac.
A severely truncated version was released as a single by PYE in 1973.
Fortunately, the original full length version survives, and kicks off CD
2, which is joined by the best of the other recordings made during
1971-1973, including two stand out rockers in 'Man Of Renown' &
'Bellyful of Rock', recorded for a Scottish TV show. Comes complete
with a picture booklet containing an interview with band leader Jake
Scott.)
