Peephole In My Brain documents the progressive-pop sounds of the year as the underground rock scene crossed over to the mainstream. Our 71 tracks from ’71 include major hits for the likes of Curved Air, Atomic Rooster and John Kongos as well as a selection of key album cuts from Procol Harum, ELP, Magna Carta, Barclay James Harvest, Cressida, Help Yourself, Legend and many others. We also include tracks that were first issued in 1971 but which would only make a mark later on: Status Quo would have to wait a while for ‘Mean Girl’ to hit the charts, Terry Dactyl & The Dinosaurs would find success twelve months later when ‘Sea Side Shuffle’ was reissued, and the Curtiss Maldoon album track ‘Sepheryn’ would be discovered more than twenty years later by Madonna, who used it as the basis for ‘Ray Of Light’.We disinter bona fide classic 45s from Kevin Ayers, Medicine Head, Wishful Thinking and The Move along with the song that Bowie wrote for his old friend Dana Gillespie, a clutch of righteously obscure but fascinating singles, a handful of essential singer/songwriter cuts and a raft of unissued-at-the-time nuggets from bands who existed outside of the major label pop bubble. Featuring a 40-page booklet crammed with rare illustrations and the stories behind the songs, Peephole In My Brain is an essential addition to Grapefruit’s acclaimed year-by-year series of late Sixties/early Seventies British rock and pop. Review: Very few Turkeys. - Excellent collection here. 73 tracks and only about ten of them could be called Turkeys. Songs with messages,Songs to make you laugh, Songs to make you think and music to make you wonder. If you missed out on the transition from 1969 to 1973 this is the album for you.. Its not rock, its not Pop, its not jazz or blues or MoR its just a collection if some really great tunes. Review: Takes you back in time - Great cd ,some songs I knew ,some new to me ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08BDBWG1G | | Best Sellers Rank | 22,958 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) 2,454 in Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl) 2,514 in Compilations 3,279 in Pop Rock | | Country of origin | Czech Republic | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (164) | | Label | Grapefruit | | Manufacturer | Grapefruit | | Manufacturer reference | CDGF027 | | Number of discs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 12.6 x 12.8 x 1.4 cm; 94.12 g | ## Images ![Peephole In My Brain ~ The British Progressive Pop Sounds Of 1971 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91vNmQA499L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very few Turkeys. *by R***. on 8 November 2020* Excellent collection here. 73 tracks and only about ten of them could be called Turkeys.
