Renaissance +
Demon Edsel
POP
The second of two double album reissues from VANILLA FUDGE! The band featured MARK STEIN on organ and lead vocals, VINNIE MARTELL on guitar, TIM BOGERT on bass, and CARMINE APPICE on drums.
This release contains their third and fourth albums, originally issued in July 1968 and March 1969, both of which reached the Top 20. ‘Renaissance’ contains the band’s own compositions alongside their interpretation of DONOVAN’s “Season Of The Witch”.
‘Near The Beginning’ features only four tracks, amongst which is the Fudge’s seven-and-a-half minute reworking of LEE HAZLEWOOD and NANCY SINATRA’s classic “Some Velvet Morning”. The fourth track is “Break Song”, probably the first-ever recorded 23 minute live work-out, predating the GRATEFUL DEAD and QUICKSILVER MESSENGER SERVICE by a year.
