Vigil - The Easybeats 1968 United Artists London ENGLAND MONO.
What an absolute cracking album by oz legends Vander and Young , so many iconic tracks later reproduced by other artists make this album an absolute classic.
Vigil is the fifth studio album by Australian rock band The Easybeats, released in May 1968. This would be the second and final album by the band released on the United Artists Records label.
During mid 1967 the band were working on the follow-up to their Good Friday album with producer Glyn Johns at Olympic Recording Studios. According to John Tait's book Vanda & Young: Inside Australia's Hit factory, the album was to be titled Good Times. However, due to legal issues between the band and its Australian production company Albert Productions, that album was permanently shelved. Some of the surviving tracks ("Good Times", "Land of Make Believe"), as well as newly recorded ones, would be used on what was now titled Vigil (so titled as tribute to the fans who held vigil for the album's long release).[1] Other songs from the original Good Times album would eventually be released on The Shame Just Drained compilation in 1977.
