Amethyst Nights - By Phil Eaves - A Definitive History Of Preston's Legendary Amethyst Club (1. Book. A wonderful soft back book detailing the history of this legendary Preston rock club which became a key venue for virtually every British progressive/psychedelic/underground rock artist from 1969 -1970. Packed with photos, memories and memorabilia (such as posters and contracts) this is a first hand account of perhaps the greatest period in British rock when experimental music was the mainstream. Includes photos and posters covering acts such as Michael Chapman, Skin Alley, Groundhogs, Skid Row, Killing Floor, Rare Bird, Clouds, Pretty Things, Quiver, Rare Bird, Van Der Graaf Generator, Trees and many lesser known bands that did not make any records (unless the former members of Greasy Bear, Pink Custard Lights, Isambard Kingdom or Stoned Rose can tell us any different) Limited to only 500 copies and featuring a foreward by Nigel Cross (who regularly attended the club) this is a real treat for UK progressive/psychedelic/underground rock fans. 84 Pages A5 In Sepia and Colour.
