Product description

Big Big Train's "English Electric Part One" is a captivating journey through the landscapes of progressive rock and art rock, released on 3 September 2012 under the label EER / GEP. This seventh studio album from the English band is a masterful blend of intricate compositions and rich storytelling, spanning a total of 58 minutes across eight tracks. The album opens with "The First Rebreather," a sprawling epic that sets the tone for the rest of the record, followed by the shorter, more accessible "Uncle Jack." The title track, "Winchester from St Giles' Hill," showcases the band's knack for weaving historical narratives into their music, while "Judas Unrepentant" and "Summoned By Bells" delve into darker, more complex territories. "Upton Heath" and "A Boy in Darkness" offer moments of introspection and reflection, culminating in the hauntingly beautiful "Hedgerow." Recorded at English Electric Studios, the album features a rich tapestry of sounds, including double bass, brass band, and intricate drum work, all brought together by the band's signature progressive rock and metal influences. "English Electric Part One" is a testament to Big Big Train's ability to craft immersive, thought-provoking music that resonates long after the final note fades.

This 2019 Limited Edition Reissue 2LP set is pressed on Blue vinyl.

Wow, it's like, super duper light blue. I'm not even sure it qualifies as blue, honestly. I'd probably call it 'mint blue' --> https://cdn.metro-group.com/de/de_pim_346789030001_01.png
