Personnel includes: Roy Harper, Tony Visconti, The Nice. Recorded principally at Abbey Road Studios, London, England in September 1969. Personnel: Roy Harper (vocals, guitar, electric guitar, saxophone, keyboards); Tony Visconti (recorder); Keith Emerson (keyboards); Brian Davison (drums). Singer/songwriter Roy Harper came upon the mid-1960s London folk scene alongside the likes of Jackson C. Frank, Sandy Denny, et al., and his 1970 album, FLAT BAROQUE & BERSERK, was the final installment of his initial folkie phase. With his next release, the rapturously received STORMCOCK, he would incorporate expansive prog-rock flavoring into his style, but FLAT BAROQUE is a sparse, acoustic-based effort that focuses squarely on Harper's poetic lyrics and (at that point) Dylanesque tunes. He's backed here by Keith Emerson's pre-ELP outfit, the Nice, offering a slight foreshadowing of things to come, but progressive epics were not yet a part of Harper's approach.
