Album Description
Available in:
"Flashes from the Archives of Oblivion" is a live double album released in 1974 by Roy Harper.
The album's liner notes state the tracks were "recorded at various concerts in England at one time or another". Two of the songs were recorded on Valentine's Day at a concert to mark the release of Harper's 1974 album Valentine. That concert took place at London's Rainbow Theatre where Harper performed alongside Jimmy Page, David Bedford, Max Middleton, Ronnie Lane and Keith Moon.
The initial printing of the album cover caused a strike among female workers at the EMI factory in Hayes when shop stewards found the picture of a naked man in that week's new releases. The naked man is Harper himself, wearing a pair of football socks in the colours of his favourite football team, Manchester City F.C.
In 1989 the album was reissued on Awareness Records. The tracklist was slightly altered so the album would fit onto a single cd. As a result, three tracks; "Home" (Studio version), "Too Many Movies" and "Home" were appended onto the 1989 Awareness' reissue of Harper's 1974 release; Valentine.
