Snafu
|
progressive |
|
East of Eden's second album, "Snafu" was originally released in 1970 by Deram Records and saw the band take their particular fusion of jazz, psychedelia, world music and even blue beat, one step further. As ever, the instrumental prowess of Dave Arbus on violin dominated the music, leading eventually to Arbus playing the infamous violin solo on "Baba O'Reilly" by The Who. "Snafu" was the result of many months in the studio, before being shelved in favour of starting work on a fresh project. This Esoteric Recordings reissue has been remastered from the original master tapes and features many unreleased bonus tracks, including five previously unreleased tracks from the aborted album sessions and alternate demo and single versions of their 1971 hit, "Jig-A-Jig". An extensive essay features interviews and previously unseen photographs.

Mercator Projected
|
progressive |
|
A milestone in the birth of "progressive" rock, East of Eden's debut album, "Mercator Projected" has been cited by Mojo magazine as a minor masterpiece. Released on the legendary Deram label in 1969, the album established East of Eden as a major act, particularly in France, where the band had several Top Ten singles and major album success. An imaginative fusion of jazz, psychedelia and world music, "Mercator Projected" has been re-mastered from the original master tapes and features twenty minutes of bonus material, including previously unreleased extended demo versions of 'Waterways' and 'In The Stable of the Sphynx' and East of Eden's take on The Byrds' classic 'Eight Miles High'. All original artwork has been restored and the booklet features many unseen photographs and memorabilia.
