Arthur Brown & Vincent Crane - Faster Than The Speed Of Light (Reissue, Remastered) (1980/2011)

One of the great overlooked albums of the 1970s, Faster Than the Speed of Light was the result of a collaboration between legendary Crazy World & Kingdom Come visionary Arthur Brown and his former Crazy World colleague (and Atomic Rooster leader) Vincent Crane.The album was recorded for the German Innovative Communication label at a time when Brown was also collaborating with German Synthesiser genius Klaus Schulze (assuming the guise of RICHARDWAHNFRIED) on the album Time Actor , also released by Esoteric Recordings this month. The resulting record was a unique fusion of Brown s amazing vocals and eccentric musical visions and Crane’s innovative keyboard playing and arrangement ideas.This newly re-mastered reissue restores the original album artwork and includes a new essay.
