  | ARTHUR BROWN / KINGDOM COME ~ GALACTIC ZOO DOSSIER
CASTLE 807 (Barcode: 5050159180721) ~ UK ~ Progressive Rock
1st album from 1971. After the `Crazy World of Arthur Brown` collapsed, with Crane and Palmer leaving to start Atomic Rooster, Brown founded his second group called Kingdom Come, whch was even more revolutionary and outrageous then the first. Mixing elements of Avant-Garde, psychedelia, Prog and Jazz the group produced a remarkable sound years ahead of its time. It was dark, dense, complex and always bitterly sarcastic and hillarious. Some great playing and Brown`s vocal virtuosity make this a rare treat.

Combining elements of Art-Rock, Prog, Psychedelia, Avant-Garde, Jazz and even Classical, this was music eons ahead of its time. This music is revolutionary and outrageous, intelligent and funny, full of complex compositions with frequent rhythm shifts and multi-melodic themes; in short dazzling every step of the way. Brown´s unique vocal delivery adds another dimension to the already multifaceted package. Sadly the music was not appreciated at the time of its release and only decades later discovered as a true gem, as rightly deserved. Brilliant stuff and a must for every Prog fan!
