  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Vertigo by Michael Mandrake Buyer's Guide: Vertigo Records
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Vertigo by Michael Mandrake Buyer's Guide: Vertigo Records. Away from the label’s big hitters, there’s a treasure trove of unique and essential albums to be discovered. We pick out the very best. Every team needs a star player or two, but the legendary Vertigo records imprint had several. Black Sabbath for one. Status Quo for another. Let’s not forget Rod Stewart and his seminal solo albums, An Old Raincoat Won’t Ever Let You Down and Gasoline Alley. Hell, Vertigo even had Nirvana on their books for a while – albeit the Patrick Campbell-Lyons kind. But star players are nothing without a strong supporting cast, and that’s where this issue’s Buyer’s Guide comes in. Vertigo might have built its reputation as the go-to progressive label of the late 60s and early 70s, with albums such as Sabbath’s debut and Paranoid , Quo’s Piledriver , Uriah Heep’s …Very ’Eavy …Very ’Umble , even. But Vertigo’s DNA was built on a dizzying array of what could be termed B-list bands. That’s not to denigrate these lower-tier acts in any way, shape of form. They might not have enjoyed the critical acclaim and hot-selling success of Vertigo’s album-chart-busting performers, but that doesn’t make them any the less worthwhile. You also have to place this Buyer’s Guide in the context of the musical environment of the time, when the pages of record companies’ chequebooks were looser than a circus clown’s trousers, and A&R stood for artists and repertoire, not attitude and rejection.
