DESCRIPTION: In 1967 the members of the Carlisle, UK band the VIP's (already signed to the UK Island Records label and having gone through numerous personnel changes) were convinced to change their name to Art (a most presumptuous name at the dawn of the Age of Flower Power!) and under the production of Guy Stevens, they created this one album. Supernatural Fairytales offers a mix of a few covers (including a song by the Young Rascals and Buffalo Springfield's For What It's Worth) and numerous self-penned originals (e.g. Rome Take Away Three, Flying Achors). Like its cover art this musically has psychedelia popping up all over along with influences of hard rock, soul, and pop. Top notch musicianship and the soulful voice of Mike Harrison. Supposedly, during an interview, Geezer Butler of Black Sabbath said that Art was a big influence on his band. Think about that while you listen to the album’s opening track, I Think I’m Going Weird. Within a year of its release, in 1968, American-born Gary Wright joined the fold and with him was born Spooky Tooth. In his vocal sound was found the counterbalance needed to sustain the group. The rest, as they say, is musical history. Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4
