Description

Hard-to-find LP from Fruupp titled "Future Legends" released by Dawn (DNLS 3053) in 1973. U.K. pressing. Debut from Irish progressive rock 4-piece with eight tracks that make up this fantasy concept album. Wide dynamics in sound with chamber string arrangements, heavy guitar sections and pastoral melodic passages. Very solid first effort and probably their best. Lovely textured gatefold sleeve design. Quite rare!
