Description
Lacksman already had an album (Flamenco Moog) and a minor European hit ("Coconut") under his belt when he recorded 1973's Dan Lacksman, which
is a true outlier in his catalog in that it features him on guitar (!) and voice
(!!) along with his usual keyboard wizardry. As such, it's probably his most
accessible record for those approaching his music from a strictly rock
background. An early version of "Skylab" hints at the grand version to come on Tchip Tchip; some of the album sounds like a Belgian version of Steely Dan, and at times you might even hear a little early Eno/Robert Wyatt/Kevin Ayers prog punctuated by a couple of drinking songs. Overall, it's a progressive pop singersongwriter album and a bit of a trailblazer at that…which explains why original copies go for a mint. Out on CD and a neon green vinyl pressing limited to 900 copies!
