THE EASYBEATS Heaven & Hell (United Artists 67 106) RARE German 1st Pressing PS MINT-
A RARE original German first pressing of The Easybeats single "Heaven & Hell" b/w "Pretty Girl" on United Artists Records (July 1967).
A minor psychedelic classic in its own right, The Easybeats` "Heaven And Hell" marked a clear musical step forward for the Australian garage rockers. "Heaven And Hell" proved to be the first in a veritable string of wonderfully druggy dirges that lasted throughout 1967 and 1968, culminating in the masterful rave-up of "Good Times" (September 1968). If the moniker "criminally underrated" ever fitted a sixties band to the proverbial "T", it would have to be The Easybeats!
