Methuselah

Matthew, Mark, Luke And John

Obscure psychedelic gospel act Methuselah had its roots in Scunthorpe 'Beat' group the Dimples, which became Gospel Garden, whose only 45 infused northern soul with psych leanings. Regrouping as Methuselah, the group signed to Elektra for this sole religious rock concept LP, their sound deceptively American, with vocal harmonies evidencing bluegrass influences; guitarist Les Nicol is never short of excellent. Certain members would later form Amazing Blondel, but 'Matthew, Mark, Luke And John' has a unique flavour, and this edition includes two rare bonus tracks. This slice of obscure psych must be heard to be believed!
