Man - S/T (Liberty, LBS 83 464 I) Wales 1971




Nice psychedelic cover ...probably the first thing that gets you interested in Man's third Album. Although i do like it, this is no consistent release as there are obviously way too many things the band wanted to try - it's a mixture of different styles and i'm not even sure if some of the songs were intended to be taken serious or if they should be considered as some kind of eccentric joke.
On this record you will find country-songs(!) next to straight rock-tracks as well as Man's (not really impressive) progressive-experiments like Would The Christians Wait Five Minutes? The Lions Are Having A Draw (what an incredibly stupid song-title)or The Alchimist

This is not something very special and certainly no must-have but still a nice addition to any 70's rock-collection

  1. This cover shows a gay male in his mid twenties dancing on a croatian nudist beach. His gayness is too strong for the buildings behind him. They are melting right away. This cover gives us an idea of the bad construction work and architecture of the croation buildings in the 70ies. I hope no persons were harmed because of melting iron.

  2. It is clear that the dancing gaylord melted the buildings with his sheer sexual powers...glad you recognized that....please don't try to copy that erotic dance
