Reality is the debut studio album by British rock band Second Hand, released in 1968. The album is sometimes considered to be one of the first progressive rock recordings, and sometimes as a psychedelic rock/garage rock album which includes only occasional elements of progressive.

In a retrospective review for Allmusic, Rolf Semprebon commented, "There are lots of long instrumental sections with guitar solos, which is fortunate because Ken Elliott's vocals are the weakest link, and a few of his song arrangements come off a little dated as well. Fortunately, those aspects are not enough to distract too much from this otherwise excellent record." - Wikipedia

As I recently published a story about Kopperfield, it’s exciting to see their Tales Untold getting reissued by Out-Sider (Guerssen). This album is all about loud guitars and Hammond organ, a true proto-prog gem. These guys opened for Foghat, James Gang, and Kansas. A hidden treasure for anyone into old-school heavy rock. #heavyrock #protoprog

New #review today: "Active between 1967 and 1971, the UK band #SecondHand released two under-appreciated albums, Reality (1968) and Death May Be Your Santa Claus (1971). The original releases of these two albums have been long sought after by collectors. Though both albums have been reissued over the years, these 2023 editions have been meticulously remastered by the renowned #ProfStoned." #ExposeOnline #PsychedelicRock #ProtoProg http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/second-hand-the-moving-finger-reality-6.html

Laurelie - Deborah -1970 - BE

Review from ashratom in R.Y.M. "A surprisingly nice discovery for the time and place, and one of the big time Belgian rarities up there with Irish Coffee and Waterloo. Laurelie, musically speaking, could be considered the next level up from the large freakbeat movement that was all the rage in The Netherlands and Belgium in the late 1960s (groups like the Wallace Connection, for example). English vocals are a bit suspect, but the sophistication and exploration of ideas is considerably more than what is normally found in Continental Europe at such an early date. Wonderful fuzz guitar, old keyboard sounds and especially the flute drive the melodic and tonal contents. The 22 minute, multi-part closer has many great ideas. Holds up better than most in this genre. Bass player went on to Jenghiz Khan." Thanks for visiting the channel.

@luca @martellum Lo conoscevo, stupendo!

Non mi stupisce lo abbiano tolto di mezzo... Ma proprio il gruppo secondo me era troppo avanti per l'epoca, secondo me molti non li hanno neanche capiti.

E pensare che arrivarono terzi a #sanremo , che fa il paio con la presenza di #elioelestorietese : eccezioni che confermano la regola 😞

Hai fatto benissimo a segnalarlo, ora metto #hashtag 😉
