Too Many Late Nights (Mod) [CD]

Seelie Court - the world's premier label for rare and previously unreleased archive recordings of underground folk, rock, proto-metal, and psychedelic music presents 'Too Many Late Nights'. Showcasing The Great Crash's more experimental and progressive side, these studio sessions emphasise long-form, intelligent art rock compositions, pairing shifting structures with witty, 10CC-like subject matter and a distinctly British sense of irony. The material impressed John Peel, leading to a BBC Peel Session and placing The Great Crash among the more adventurous voices of the early-1970s UK underground. Formed around the songwriting of drummer and lyricist Piers Geddes, the group blended piano-led arrangements, melodic invention, and subtle progressive ambition without sacrificing accessibility. Presented with liner notes and artwork supervised by the band, Too Many Late Nights reveals a confident, forward-thinking ensemble operating at full creative stretch, and stands as a vital companion to Deadfire Echoes in documenting The Great Crash's quietly remarkable legacy.
