Some words on this issue:
CATAPILLA: S/T Vertigo 6360 029 Record: Excellent Near Mint/ Gatefold
Jacket: Near Mint .
First Catapilla record on the Vertigo swirl label and the
best one in my book.
Totally underrated but so fucking great.
A genuinely
astounding album that seems to cut across time and space: while the knotty,
complex jazz-rock backing and lengthy tracks up to 24 min.9 are early 70s in
every regard, Anna Meek s vicious, nasal yowl and nihilistic no future lyrics
are pure class-of-77 punk.
Indeed, I wouldn t be surprised to hear that Johnny
Rotten learned his vocal craft from this LP.
The two extended cuts are stunning
enough, but it s on the shorter pieces Promises and Tumbleweed that the
band really evinces the future: the former is the punkiest thing on the album,
whilst the latter sounds exactly like the product of some early 80s indie
outfit RF Galactic Ramble .
Great copy on the highly collectible Vertigo
label and a total head-trip for sure.
Anna Meek s vocals definitely rule Very
