Cave of Clear Light: Pye & Dawn Records 1967-1975 (2010)
2010 three CD anthology that tells the story of the Underground years of the Pye record label and its Progressive imprint Dawn Records. Often unfairly seen as a poor relation to the Progressive and Underground releases by major labels such as Decca, Harvest, Vertigo, Island and United Artists, Pye Records also released many albums and singles by artists who were at the forefront of the Underground Rock explosion of the late '60 s and early '70 s. Cave Of Clear Light features tracks from artists such as Donovan, Status Quo, Man, Atomic Rooster and Fruupp. Also includes rare cuts from Jonesy, David McWilliams, Stray, Paul Brett's Sage, Fire, Titusgroan, Demon Fuzz, Noir, Comus, Gravy Train and many others. Includes an extensive book featuring information on all the artists featured and the story of Pye's Progressive period and the birth of Dawn Records.
