Description

Jakarta Records & Uno Loop are thrilled to announce Bowes Road Band’s sprawling LP Back in the HCA. In 1972, 4 design students at the Hornsey College of Art in London decided to make a record. The decision was neither the result of nascent dreams of stardom nor of fastidiously developed musicianship. Bowes Road Band’s 1st + only LP was simply the result of an impulse to create. With 50 copies pressed & no digital crumbs, the LP’s Berlin flea market discovery revealed a sonic foray into a delicately balanced world of psycho-trip meltdowns, rich jazz improv., & tuneful folk stylings. Hear echoes of Mark Fry’s Dreaming With Alice, Donovan’s honeyed folk, The Kinks’s blistering blues rock & much more on Back in the HCA. – Uno Loop
