GIGYMEN – s/t (LP Vinyl)

First ever reissue of this lost treasure, originally an obscure private pressing of just 100 copies. Gigymen were a college circuit band from Cambridge who in 1974 recorded their only album at Spaceward Studios. Stunning folk- rock / folk- pop with pro- recorded sound, superb musicianship and strong songwriting. With influences ranging from Fairport Convention to The Beatles, here you'll find some superb folk- rock adaptations of traditional songs such like ''As I roved out'', ''Gypsy Laddie'' and ''Rocky Road to Dublin'' along with fab folk- pop with Beatlesque vocals on tracks like ''Plain Jane'' or ''Gone are the days''. The album was originally released with only a blank paper sheet with the credits on the cover so we've designed a new front sleeve for our reissue. Insert with rare pictures and detailed liner notes is also included. *Guerssen
