Writing on the Wall - Lucifer Corpus [LP] Writing On The Wall were a legendary Scottish underground psych/prog band whose explosive live reputation rivaled the early UK heavyweight s of the late '60s/early '70s. From Edinburgh soul rebels to theatrical psychedelic warriors, they were signed to the Middle Earth label, releasing their sole album, The Power Of The Picts, in 1969. Sadly, despite critical praise, major live popularity and opportunities to break internationally, the band's career became trapped in management disputes, failed label deals and bad luck, leaving much of their finest material unreleased for decades. This compilation gathers some of that material: their killer non-LP "Lucifer Corpus / Child On A Crossing" 45; early psych stuff including the rare Jury acetate; the 7-minute Mellotron-fueled "Buffalo" and rare TV broadcast recordings. Comes in hard cardboard period sleeve. Includes insert with track-by track annotations by original member Jimmy Hush and rare photos. A1. Words and Music A2. Felicity Jane A3. Flight of The Mind A4.
