We Are Paintermen + How Does It Feel To Feel

The Creation was formed in 1966 from beat combo The Mark Four, and was quickly signed to a production deal with Shel Talmy, The Who's producer. The first release was the urgent 'Making Time', which featured guitarist Eddie Phillips playing his guitar with a violin bow, two years before Jimmy Page started doing so. Also featured are 'Biff Bang Pow', and 'Painter Man', a hit in Germany, and later covered by Boney M. Whilst very popular in Germany and Denmark, UK success largely eluded the band, and the band broke up in 1968 without ever having released an album in the UK. Alan McGee named his record label after the band, and even named his band after the song 'Biff Bang Pow'. This 2CD set includes all their recordings from the 1960s. The two CDs are presented in brand new seven-inch deluxe gatefold packaging, designed by Phil Smee, with an 8-page booklet which includes the credits and archive photos.
