Egg Archive

Egg were one of the most complex and musically adventurous bands ever to confront an audience. Starting life as the psychedelic blues group Uriel in 1968, the organ trio toured the UK extensively and recorded three highly acclaimed albums (Egg, The Polite Force and The Civil Surface) before disbanding in 1972.

Please note that profits from the Egg archive CDs and companion booklet go directly to the musicians with no record company involvement.

egg archive - copious notes (companion booklet)



Dave Stewart on the companion booklet Copious Notes: "While compiling the sleeve notes for the two Egg archive CDs I asked my colleagues to send me their recollections of the era. Mont Campbell and Antony Vinall (a lifelong friend who was at school with us and wrote some of the Arzachel lyrics) responded so enthusiastically - and in such great detail - that I couldn't bear to hack their contributions down to size to fit the two CD booklets. Instead, I thought it would be nice to create a special booklet to accompany the CDs which would include our unexpurgated memoirs and other related text."

"That gave me the opportunity to write at length about the music and add my own memoirs. It also meant we could include song lyrics and many more photos of Uriel, Egg and the Ottawa Company taken by Terry Yetton between 1968 and 1972. Copious Notes turned into quite a labour of love - reading it is probably the closest you can get to experiencing the sights, sounds, smells and sensations of our corner of the experimental / underground UK music scene of the late '60s."

Please note that postage on this item is equivalent to two CDs.
