Cockney Rebel - "Cavaliers" An Anthology 1973-1974 (4 CDs)

* * * * *




"Somebody called me Sebastian..."  Ah yes, I can remember listening to that epic debut single on the fading-prone signal of Radio Luxembourg back in the 1970s.  The single flopped here in the UK, but was a monster hit in Europe.  I had a bit of a love/hate thing with Steve Harley, depending very much on my mood.  And now, as predicted here a long time ago, is a compilation celebrating the early Cockney Rebel line-up.  You get 4 CDs for the price of 1!  You get the classic albums "The Human Menagerie" and "The Psychomodo".  You get all the early EMI singles including "Judy Teen", the edit of "Sebastian" and all the B-sides.  You get a disc of early versions and demos.  You get a BBC Radio 1 In Concert and Peel Sessions CD.  You get a hell of a lot for your money.  You get down your local record emporium and get yourself a copy!  





"Your lips, ruby blue..."
