ARTHUR BROWN was one of the prime movers behind the Progressive underground in late 1960s England, famous for his outlandish stage act which included psychedelic robes and a helmet of fire! He was born in Whitby, England during an air raid in 1944, after a failed bid to study Law at King's College in London he studied philosophy at Reading University. After singing in various R&B groups, he formed his band THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN: this consisted of Brown (vocals), Vincent Crane (organ) and Drachen Theaker (drums), the latter of which would soon be replaced by a young Carl PALMER after the band's US tour. Emotional problems caused Crane to leave the band, and he later formed ATOMIC ROOSTER from the ashes of the CRAZY WORLD...
They cut their self-titled debut album in 1968, and is a unique work of art which makes great use of Brown's scorching vocals, bizarre lyrics (& poetry) and Crane's Hammond Organ. THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN is recommended to all Prog fans who are interested in the early, underground days of Prog or Hammond Organ-driven rock with a psychedelic/theatrical touch. It is also recommended to fans who wish to trace the origins of ATOMIC ROOSTER, out of which (along with THE NICE & KING CRIMSON) grew ELP.
