Nice Enough to Eat

Album Notes & Community Reviews

Priced incredibly cheaply, this famous Island Records sampler essentially functioned as an incredibly effective loss leader, introducing the label's formidable, rapidly expanding roster of progressive and folk-rock artists. Gathering crucial early tracks from heavily influential underground acts like King Crimson, Fairport Convention, and Free, the compilation successfully defined the emerging, highly sophisticated aesthetic of the British counterculture at the absolute turn of the decade.
