Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. Jade Warrior was one of the most intriguing and inventive bands signed to the Vertigo label in the early Seventies. Last Autumn's Dream was their third album, first released in 1972 and features Tony Duhig (guitar), Glyn Havard (vocals, bass) and Jon Field (flute, congas, percussion), together with Allan Price (drums) and David Duhig (lead guitar). The band's unusual name reflects their interest in Eastern music (a 'Jade Warrior' means a Japanese Samurai swordsman who is also interested in art and poetry). The Jade Warrior group was a unique concept, and the music on this LP has great subtlety that progressive rock fans will find especially appealing. Among the highlights are the singles 'A Winter's Tale' and 'The Demon Trucker' as well as instrumental numbers such as 'Dark River' and 'Obedience'.
