One was another of the numerous short-lived bands that have come to form a hugely complex picture of the tail-end of the 1960s. One were born out of an earlier revolution, the roots of which can be traced to the mid-'60s R&B scene, which gave way to the psychedelic and progressive blues scenes a few years later. Various members had come up through the beat ranks in Timebox, Loose Ends, The Rogues, Happy Magazine, and Gass, all enjoying varying degrees of success, and by the end of the decade they would come together to form the progressive outfit One. After a lone self-titled album on Fontana (released in the UK, Spain, France, and Germany) and two 1970 singles containing album tracks, the dream was quickly over. That sole album, originally issued in 1969 and now highly sought-after by collectors of British progressive rock, is available here in professionally remastered sound with a bonus track taken from the band's 1970 split single with French pop artist César, thus collecting all of One's recorded output. Includes background liners and rare archival photos.
