SALAMANDER - THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (IT)
LP (12"/10" Album)
Label: BONFIRE
Release date: 24/06/2022
Barcode: 0781930069434
Catalog no.: BONF0000011
Item ID: 522146
Fully licensed, limited to 500 copies on 180 gram vinyl. The biblical ten commandments are surely the main inspiration behind this concept album originally released on British independent label Young Blood in 1971. The one and only release by Salamander, a short-lived UK four piece , the album is a quintessential prog opera with a heavy effort on Hammond organ and lush orchestral arrangements. Comprised of Alister Benson (organ, vocals), Dave Chriss (bass), John Cook (drums) and Dave Titley (lead vocals, guitar), the band was often compared to The Moody Blues and Deep Purple Mark I. Even if the 10 tracks are inspired by the holy script, the band was not proven to be Christian rock itself. The album is a sublime pompous pop affair, with a good dose of fuzz guitars and brass section.
Also available: THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (SP) (LP).
