180 gram thick card vinyl pressing by Galliard who were formed in Birmingham, in the summer of 1968.
Jazz Rock outfit GALLIARD.
Formed in the Midlands in 1969 featuring Andrew Abbott (bass), Geoff Brown (vocals), Dave Caswell (saxophones), Richard Pannell (guitar), Les Podraza (drums) and John Smith (woodwind), this innovative group recorded their first album for Deccas DERAM NOVA imprint in 1970.
Like many other NOVA acts, Galliard failed to achieve the commercial success they deserved. Both "Strange Pleasure" and their follow up release "New Dawn" are among the most collectable and valuable records of the Progressive Rock genre.
