TOP COPY
Original 1972 rare first press w/ laminated cover ... dazzling dual guitars dominate tight-wired hard rock drivers filled with the 'right' sound -- tasty melodies woven in the self compositions. Ultimately a solid album, one that has received high praise from clear back to it's initial release in '72 ...
British progressive heavy rock bands like Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Uriah Keep and Led Zeppelin inspired many young bands in Germany. The Germans usually preferred to use English lyrics, and several bands, like Blackwater Park, 2066 & Then and Epitaph, had British vocalists!
Epitaph were founded in Dortmund in 1969. The first sessions for their debut album, released 1971 on Polydor, were recorded in an Essex studio in England. For reasons unknown, it was however finished in Windrose Studios, Hamburg Germany.
In 1972, Epitaph recorded this, their second album "Stop, Look And Listen" in Audio Tonstudio, Berlin Germany. This album contains five tracks, stylistically similar to their first offering, blissful hard rock, twin guitars soaring coupled with blistering attacks... Overall "Stop, Look and Listen" is a very guitar driven progressive rock record with blues rock tones as well. Both '71 & '72 Epitaph albums are recommended for fans of the heavy progressive Krautrock genre.
