East Of Eden "Mercator Projected" 1968                   

This was the first album I played on .One of the first British "art rock bands". I play a horrible bass solo on here. I was screwing around thinking it was a run through and the producer decided it was a take and called a lunch break. I was playing a 1962 Precision with flatwounds and had intended to switch to roundwounds and play a horrible solo with more twang. Otherwise it's an interesting album.
