Esoteric Recordings unveils the London-based pre-progressive rock act the Web's 1968 debut release, FULLY INTERLOCKING. Originally released on Deram Records, it was the Web's most experimental album among its three releases. Combining equal doses of jazz, progressive and psychedelic rock, as well as a response to '60s pop, the album is a provocative musical odyssey. And with songs comprised of various string, brass, and woodwind instrumentation, FULLY INTERLOCKING may very well be the template that influenced the progressive stalwarts Genesis, Camel, and Gentle Giant. The reissue features three exclusive bonus cuts.
