TOP COPY
Absolutely (rare)  ~ 1971 first press of the mighty STUD
***************************************
Comprised of 2/3 of Rory Gallagher's original powerhouse legends TASTE  and key-member of the legendary-psych band "BLOSSOM TOES"
  1. ***************************************

  2. STUD began as a trio with Jim Cregan (ex Blossom Toes) (vocals, guitar), Richard McCracken (bass) and John Wilson (drums), the latter pair having split with Rory Gallagher's TASTE on 31st December 1970.

The newly formed STUD immediately were signed by UK Deram Records. .......................................................................................................
Ex Family violinist John Weider joined the band in June 1971, in time to appear on this first (of three) STUD LP's which went straight over record buyers heads due to the prolific/historic talents elsewhere exploding virtually everywhere on earth! In other-words, sadly STUD were lost in the depths of overflowing underground rock scene, except, except in Germany, where the "Krautrock" scene was also just exploding.

While the musicianship on show is top notch, the LP also features a fantastic laminated eye-grabbing cover artwork ...but at the time sold poorly outside of Germany where their label Polydor declined option of a second LP.

STUD didn't stop there ~~ signed to Germany's underground major label roster, BASF, Stud released yet two more collectible records.

The band had more success in Germany, where the innovative "Krautrock" minds were an to this blend of outstanding psych/rock & progressive talents of the time.

The sessions also featured guest appearances by Poli Palmer (of Family) and John Weider (ex-Eric Burdon & The Animals and Family). Although Stud never achieved the acclaim they deserved, their debut album remains highly sought after by aficionados of Progressive hard-edged rock.

Documented ~ original copies, as this, have sold for up to 350 U.K. sterling pounds,

think twice ~ it's scarcely available in first print from 53 years ago...
