Formed in London in 1969, Gospel Oak, a band of American expats (including future Kingfish leader Matthew Kelly), was unable to gig in the UK due to work permit issues, so the group focused instead on rehearsing and writing an album. Gospel Oak appeared in the autumn of 1970, by which time the band had returned to the US. a superb blend of folk, pop, blues, rock, and country influences, it has a growing cult reputation and makes it's long-awaited CD debut here, complete with detailed background notes and images. Digitally remastered.
