Toe Fat – Toe Fat

If you’re like me, you find the cover is irresistibly intriguing and expecting some heavy prog classic.
There is honestly no album I know of which is less deserving of such a superb cover. It’s truly dreadful in every way possible.
I bought this album 35 years ago and was so disappointed. I never listened to it again until today, thinking how some LPs which I used to think were just ok, I now think are fabulous.
Right from the start the feelings of unease came flooding back. I find his voice horrible, the guitar annoying, and the songs as corny as they could be. I’m sure love is mentioned over 500 times. The lyrics are junior school standard.
If you can get this at a decent price, buy it for the cover. Especially the UK uncensored version.

Great press for a good price! No noises, no clicks. All instruments can be heard perfectly well. I loved the bass sound of the vinyl.

Attention!
There are two different versions on the scene!
One is stereo SLDS 2176 (stereo Matrix YEX), the other is mono LDS 2176 (mono Matrix XEX, as promotional, or "promocional" copy marked on label of side A). It is said that most mono versions of albums on "Odeon Pops" label were made by local Odeon label from original UK stereo master. Both channels were then mixed down to a single channel to create a "false mono" version. (As with most of the Beatles Lps from Argentina here on disgogs). Seems to be the same here, have them both. Nethertheless, both versions are somehow great in their way...not only for the great cover work. TOE FAT TWO was not released there.
