Alex Harvey Presents The Loch Ness Monster


Hard to believe but February this year saw the twenty ninth anniversary of the death of Scottish Rock musician Alex Harvey. As famous as he was for his recordings with the Sensational Alex Harvey band there was another passion in Alex’s life and that passion was The Loch Ness Monster. Shortly after taking time out from the Sensational Alex Harvey Band in 1977 Alex took the time to document the sightings of the said Beastie and the resulting album was briefly available on the TV advertised label K-Tel. The album has been long out of print and somewhat of a collector’s item and never released on CD, Gonzo have reissued the album on CD as a limited edition package
The vinyl edition is extremely hard to find these days and it is hoped that this release will appeal to both collectors of Alex Harvey's releases and also people interested in the Loch Ness Monster phenomenon.This version comes as part of a limited edition booklet restricted to 500 copies.

It can be ordered directly here:

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
