Black Widow- Sabbat Days: The Complete Anthology 1969-1972
Six CD set. First-ever complete anthology of early 70s UK progressive rock band notorious for occult- based lyrics and explicit stage act. Features their three CBS albums, demos, including an early demo version of 'Sacrifice', out- takes, live recordings and a pre-Black Widow LP as Pesky Gee! And their final unreleased album from 1972. Inspired by the popularity of Hammer Horror films and Dennis Wheatley novels, in 1969 Leicester progressive rockers Pesky Gee! Became Black Widow and immersed themselves in the occult. Sharing management with Black Sabbath, they signed to CBS and issued concept album 'Sacrifice', a Top 40 set that included their calling card, the demonic invocation 'Come To The Sabbat'. Also including two live sets from 1970-71 and all surviving tracks from an aborted 1971 solo LP by vocalist Kay Garrett on which she was backed by Black Widow (who also wrote the songs). Featuring a 40-page booklet that contains the band's full story with quotes and many rare photos/press clippings, 'Sabbat Days' is a must-have for fans of vintage UK progressive rock, and is a fascinating document of a time when rock music still had the power to offend mainstream society.
