This band was like a massive star that burned bright and then burned out quickly but left behind a legacy and an album that is still revered more than a half century later. THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN was a short-lived act that initially only existed from 1967 - 70 but in its early three year tenure Arthur and friends released one of the seminal releases of the late 1960s that not only spawned a multi-national hit with the single “Fire” but was instrumental in ushering in the worlds of progressive rock as well as shock rock that would ignite the 1970s like Brown’s famous metal headwear that took rock stage performances to a whole new level.
