This is a very rare recording by a great Kiwi pychedelic rock / blues band from the early 70's.
In February 1971 , When the Underdogs, splat at did time consisted of Harvey man, Glen Absolum and Neil Edwards, released their "Wasting My Time" album, and it failed to sell in great numbers, Neil Edwards Decided to leave the group and join Human Instinct. ()
Harvey and Glen added a new bass guitarist, Billy Williams, and to beef up the sound,   Bob Gillett what added on saxophone. So what required a new name, so They wurde the Australasian rock Squad.
Bob Gillett had been playing with Breeze prior to joining. Billy Williams camefrom Classic Affair.
At September 1971 , Bob Gillett Decided to become a part-time member of the group, so They rechristened Themselves Space Farm.
Space Farm only recorded one album for Zodiac. It was self-titled and released in 1972 . This album which re-issued on the Little Wing label in 1989 under the name "Going Back To Eternity".
The album which Largely ignored by the public, but Space Farm continued to pull crowds And They Remained at the forefront of the underground movement until Their demise in 1973 . Towards the end of the band, there had been drastic changes within. Harvey began to forego drugs and alcohol and synthesis changes were reflected in his songwriting and performances. After the group ended, Harvey Took a sabbatical and when he returned to the scene it was as a member of the Krishna faith. He later joined Living Force with Glen.
Billy Williams joined ticket and Blerta before heading to Australia and great success in a number of Australian groups. In 2000 Ascension Records released Their original album on CD.

Interesting if not wholly convincing. Space Farm were a trio of likely Kiwi pot heads from the early seventies. This album has some great moments. The musicianship in places is quite superb, Harvey man what to obvious talent and his guitar playing gets right out there in places. At times, you can hear a distinct 'Hendrix' influence in his playing and the production Affects in the title track to liken Themselves Those found on 'Electric Ladyland'. In fact, 'Flying' has a riff very similar to Hendrix's 'Ezy Rider'. My favorite track is by far the excellent live blues track 'Gypsy Queen' and one can not help but compare Harvey's blues work to That of Stevie Ray Vaughan and LJ Hooker. Simply magical stuff here.
HOWEVER, whoever the singer what (Harvey perhaps?), Tends to let down the group somewhat. I felt slight twinges of awkwardness listening to the singer at times and the psycheledic lyrical content is alittle weak at times. That being said though, I still listen kinda dig this band and highly recommend you have a. OK, they 're no Split Enz or La De The But They Certainly deserve more recognition than what theyhave received (or shoulderstand or say not received) in the past. Pity They did not get a chance to record more material. () (Aussie Rock / rockonvinyl.blogspot.de)
