Vavoura Band was a heavy trio formed in 1976 by vocalist bassist Johnny Vavouras and guitar virtuoso Yiannis Drolapas. Their only other vinyl release is a 7" EP made in 1980 for Happening Records. "The Early Days" LP captures all the glory of this band playing live in 1979 at 2 different Athens' music halls. All the songs mixed and mastered from the original 8-tracks tapes, by Vavouras & Drolapas in the old analog way and the sound quality is incredible. Heavy progressive (in the Black Sabbath vein), bluesy hard rock, even psychedelic and spacey improvisations and greek ethnic and traditional elements. A unique sound with countless lead guitar riffs and a solid and hard kicking rhythm base. All songs in English. This limited album comes in a gatefold, fully laminated, cover with lots of photos, memorabilia and a short bio of the band. PVC protective outersleeve. 180gr. vinyl as usual. From the original master tapes. Limited 200 copies.
