2026 stock Originally released in 1971, The Edgar Broughton Band was the group’s third studio album and a defining statement of Britain’s underground rock scene. Sometimes referred to as “The Meat Album” due to its raw sleeve art, the record captures the band at their most uncompromising, blending heavy blues-rock with psychedelic textures, biting political commentary, and moments of fragile folk-inspired beauty. Known for their fiery live performances and countercultural spirit, Edgar Broughton Band became cult heroes of the UK progressive scene, sharing stages with the likes of Pink Floyd and Hawkwind. This reissue on Timeless brings back a lost classic, an essential listen for fans of early 1970s psych, hard rock, and experimental folk-rock.
