Search - Elastic Band :: Expansions on Life

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1970 album from the British rockers featuring future Sweet guitarist Andy Scott. After a few singles for Decca, a year on the underground gig circuit supporting the likes of Hendrix and Pink Floyd impacted significantly on the band's musical direction. When they returned to the studio in the summer of 1969, it was to cut Expansions On Life, a dazzling 50-minute collection of late Psychedelic/early Progressive Rock moves which suggested that the new-look Elastic Band could be genuine contenders. Inexplicably, though, Decca delayed its release until March 1970 and the album sank without trace. This definitive reissue of Expansions On Life also features all four tracks from the band's equally collectable 45s, including the regularly compiled Psychedelic Pop nugget '8 ½ Hours Of Paradise'. 2009.
