Description
Day is the sole album by the British rock band Candida Pax, released in the UK on Deroy in 1971.
Featuring Colin Stott on acoustic and electric guitar, keyboards, and vocals; Stuart Mellor on
electric guitar, lead guitar, recorder, and vocals (as well as effects); Geoff Dodd on bass and vocals; and Frank Hobbs on percussion and effects.
Day was originally released in 1971. Besides Parameter, this is the rarest release on U.K. Deroy label, as rare as Forever Amber & Dark. If you’re into Tony, Caro & John and Then Play On-era Fleetwood Mac, then this is your cup of tea. This is pure Underground with that bluesy Peter Green-like guitar and a folky edge. All original songs and all beauties. Heavy fuzz-guitar, piano, effects – the whole U.K. Underground thing. A killer album from beginning to the end.
[Ken Scott, The Archivist, 4th edition]
