Kevin Fisher "The first of Fisher" US 1977 very rare Private Psych Prog only 75 copies pressed.

So what do we know about namesake Kevin Fisher and 1977's "The First of Fisher"? Next to nothing. It's clearly a home grown vanity project and what few references we can find indicate that only 75 copies were pressed. As far as we know, this hasn't seen a CD reissue. Technically the album has a fairly primitive sound, but in musical terms it's all over the spectrum. The acoustic ballad "Lullabye" has a heavy classical feel (Pentangle came to mind the first time we heard it), while "Flying" sports a 1950s' vocal group feel and the horn-propelled "Pirate's Song" recalls a post-David Clayton Thomas Blood, Sweat and Tears. Of course first impressions are seldom entirely wrong and in this case the second side sports some mundane progressive moves in the form of "Indian Dance" and "In Search". Again it's fairly raw, but not without it's low-keyed charms, including the pretty ballad "A House for Wendy".
