''The Thoughts of Emerlist Davjack'' is the 1967 debut album by the English psychedelic rock and progressive rock group The Nice. It is considered one of the first albums in the latter genre. The name Emerlist Davjack is a pseudonym created by combining the last names of the four members of the group; Keith ''Emer''son, David OList'', Brian ''Dav''ison, and Lee ''Jack''son. The album was promoted by a sampler (Featured on the Castle Communications 2000 box set "Here Come The Nice" (CMETD 055-1)) featuring a commentary by John Peel, which included the following comments:
The cover, photographed by Gered Mankowitz, shows members of the band apparently unclad except for being wrapped in cellophane. ==Background== The original disc credits all compositions to "Emerlist Davjack"; later releases gave more specific credits. At the 1967 Windsor Jazz & Blues Festival, lead singer, Jackson, said the song "Flower King of Flies" was about Beatle, Paul McCartney. "The Thoughts of Emerlist Davjack" was used as incidental music for the 1968 children's television drama "The Tyrant King", directed by Mike Hodges and written by Trevor Preston for Thames Television, from the London Transport book by Aylmer Hall. The 6-part series also featured music by The Rolling Stones, The Moody Blues and Pink Floyd. "Rondo" includes a short excerpt from Johann Sebastian Bach's ''Toccata & Fugue in D Minor,'' as well as an extended quote and re-harmonization of the Dave Brubeck Quartet's "Blue Rondo à la Turk". "The Cry of Eugene", which was later re-recorded by Jackson's group Jackson Heights, refers to "Harlequin & Columbine". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Thoughts of Emerlist Davjack」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
