Post Description

Arcadium was another list of obscure British psychedelic bands. They had their start playing at such clubs 
as The Middle Earth (where every act you can imagine from well known, like Pink Floyd, to little known acts 
like Writing on the Wall, Wooden O, and Tam White were seen performing there). A small label called 
Middle Earth, who released only five albums, released Breathe Awhile their one and only LP.

The band consisted of (presumably) brothers Allan Ellwood (organ, vocals) and Robert Ellwood (lead guitar,
vocals), as well as John Albert Parker (drums), Graham Best (bass, vocals), and Miguel Sergides (12-string
guitar, vocals). The music is late '60s British psychedelia with some early prog leanings, where guitar and 
Hammond organ dominates.

While the original LP is very hard to come by, Repertoire Records in Germany had reissed this on CD with 
two bonus cuts, "Sing My Song" and "Riding Alone", both originally appearing on a single the band put out
the same time as Breathe Awhile, which compliments the album very nicely (as the music pretty much in
the same vein). Another totally obscure gem worth looking in to!
