Digitally remastered two CD anthology from the Scottish Progressive Rock band. Drawing on material from the band's first four albums, recorded for the legendary Vertigo label, Nimbus features 27 of the band's best tracks. Their 1970 debut album, Act One, gained some success in Europe with tracks such as 'Poet and Peasant' and 'Passacagalia'. a successful European hit single, 'Sarabande', was followed by the album Waters of Change, arguably their best and most successful album. The record included the classic 'Time Machine', along with the memorable 'Silver Peacock' and 'I've No Idea'. Pathfinder from 1972 was another classic album and featured a wonderful cover of Jim Webb's 'MacArthur Park' along with 'The Witch' and 'Hobo'. The band's final album for Vertigo, 1973's Get Your Dog Off Me, saw line-up changes, but included a fine cover of Mason Williams' 'Classical Gas' and saw further European success for the band. This anthology is a fine tribute to an inspiring band and has been newly re-mastered from the original master tapes, and features a booklet with new essay.
