Lacksman already had an album
(Flamenco Moog) and a minor European
hit (“Coconut”) under his belt when he
recorded 1973’s Dan Lacksman, which
is a true outlier in his catalog in that
it features him on guitar (!) and voice
(!!) along with his usual keyboard
wizardry. As such, it’s probably his most
accessible record for those approaching
his music from a strictly rock
background. An early version of “Skylab” hints at the grand version to come on
Tchip Tchip; some of the album sounds like a Belgian version of Steely Dan, and
at times you might even hear a little early Eno/Robert Wyatt/Kevin Ayers prog
punctuated by a couple of drinking songs. Overall, it’s a progressive pop singersongwriter album and a bit of a trailblazer at that…which explains why original
copies go for a mint. Out on CD and a neon green vinyl pressing limited to 900
copies!
