The debut album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, accordion, piano, organ and vocals.
Two guests added digeridoo and French horn.
Hughscore was lead by Hugh Hopper and it released three albums. I am reviewing their first two albums this week. Back in July 2015, I reviewed their final album Delta Flora (1999) in # 1 of this blog and you can read the review here.
Caveman Hughscore is clocking in at one hour.
The music is a blend of psych rock, jazz and avant-garde rock.
The music is rather weird and quirky. The accordion is adding a lot of extra weirdness. Ditto for the female vocals which are bordering on dissonant at times.
There are also a lot of male spoken vocals here on top of some jazzy pieces of music. Groovy music, indeed.
This is a weird album. The music is not particular good but it is still a decent album. This album is widely regarded as their weakest effort.
