The Island Book of Records Volume II : 1969-70
Island Records - Book - by Neil Storey
(2024)
The second volume of this highly collectable series, covering the
pivotal years of 1969–70. The Island Book of Records Volume II
documents the years 1969–70, during which Island sought to build on its
success with the Spencer Davis Group by seeking out new British rock
talent. By the end of the period, Island was emerging as a major British
label, one that could boast releases from Jethro Tull, Nick Drake, King
Crimson, John and Beverley Martyn, Fairport Convention and Cat Stevens.
Featuring material from recent interviews and from media interviews
of the time, and including a comprehensive discography of 45s, The
Island Book of Records Volume II is lavishly illustrated with gig
adverts (very many at venues that no longer exist), concert tickets,
flyers, international LP variants, labels, LP and 45 adverts and other
ephemera collector’s dream. -- .
