Our Take

Let The Electric Children Play" is a tantalizing trip down memory lane, delving deep into the underground gems that Transatlantic Records had on offer. This 3-disc deluxe remastered anthology is a must-have for any music aficionado looking to expand their sonic horizons.

Disc one kicks things off with a bang, showcasing the raw energy and experimental spirit that defined the label's early days. From the hypnotic grooves of The Electric Prunes to the psychedelic swirl of The Incredible String Band, each track is a testament to the diverse range of artists that Transatlantic nurtured.

Disc two delves into the label's more unconventional offerings, with avant-garde folk troubadours like Clive Palmer and Anne Briggs taking centre stage. The stripped-back production and haunting vocals on display here are a stark reminder of just how ahead of their time these artists truly were.

But it's disc three where things really start to heat up, with the emergence of groundbreaking acts like Fairport Convention and Pentangle. These pioneers of the British folk-rock scene bring a newfound sense of urgency and sophistication to the label, paving the way for the eclectic sound that would come to define Transatlantic Records.

In conclusion, "Let The Electric Children Play" is a thrilling journey through the annals of music history - a testament to the enduring legacy of Transatlantic Records and the groundbreaking artists they championed. So strap in, turn up the volume, and let the electric children play.
