Fungus - Premonitions (1973)

The one and only album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a duo with a lineup of guitars, keyboards, bass, drums and vocals.

This album is a pre-release version of the Seventh Wave album Things To Come. That album, a more modified and cleaned up version of the Fungus version was released in 1974. My review of that album can be found here.

I got no idea why a pre-album version of a pretty obscure album, even back then, was released as a white cover album. Nobody else understand this and this album is surrounded by disbelief. 

The music is a basically an attempt of copying ELP. That as a duo and with their own music. 

There are a lot of neo-classical music mixed up with some symphonic prog. There are even some vocals here.

The result is a decent album. Fans of ultra-obscure symphonic prog should check out this album. I guess that is the reason why I got this album.
