THE CREATION - LIFE IS JUST BEGINNING


Yesterday, Eddie Phillips (Creation guitarist and a true musical hero/ influence of mine) celebrated a birthday and I do believe it is apropos to keep the celebration going for one more day.

This single combines the Creation's amazing beat tendencies and mixes in with the ever present '66/'67 orchestrated sounds ala Sgt Pepper/ Pet Sounds and yields glorious results.

This song showed a remarkable progression in the group's sound (while remaining true to their roots) and is a lost classic of the time.

from 1967...

promo! nice. is that rarer than stock on this title?

I would say the stock copy is rarer by far. Singles that didn't sell well are almost always more common than stock. Some records sold so poorly that if someone ordered a particula record in a shop they would sometimes receive a promo! Sometimes the "not for sale" would be scratched out.

Phil the US b-side is "How Does It Feel To Feel"
