Description

In 1965 The End arose from the glowing embers of the earlier Tuxedos, Innocents and Original Topics, and like many of their contemporaries evolved into a psychedelic group.

Along the way, they won the support and patronage of the Rolling Stones Bill Wyman, who produced their sole album for Decca, Introspection (LP2). He also co-wrote their signature tune, the psychedelic classic Shades Of Orange, although the band wrote the rest of their material.

This four LP box set gathers together The Ends recordings: In The Beginning covers the early days from 1964 to 1967, LP 2 is the 1968 Introspection album, Retrospection features outtakes from the period 1968/69, while The Last Word rounds up the bands recordings from 1969/70, before they reinvented themselves as Tucky Buzzard.

This box set features a note by founder member Colin Giffin, artwork by legendary designer Phil Smee, and the inner sleeves feature photos and ephemera, and the bands story written by acknowledged expert David Wells.
