Beyond Morgia The Labyrinths Of Klimster is the legendary, previously unreleased 1976 Space Rock album and the soundtrack to an imaginary film. In June 1976, Lobby Loyde was at a critical juncture in his career, having already established himself as one of Australia's legendary guitarists and rock personalities, having toured and recorded relentlessly with The Purple Hearts, The Wild Cherries, The Aztecs, Coloured Balls and Southern Electric. With his faith in Australian music at low-ebb, he'd already decided to travel to London to check out the scene over there. One final order of business he had to complete before his departure in early July was to record a new album. Lobby had written the music for a Space Rock concept album which he wanted to record as the instrumental soundtrack for a proposed Sci-Fi film, all of which was based on his unpublished novel called Beyond Morgia: The Labyrinths Of Klimster. Beyond Morgia was recorded at Armstrong Studios one weekend in June 1976, with the guys from Southern Electric on hand. With the studio's tape operator Tony Cohen promoted to engineer and mixer, the session was recorded on the aturday and then overdubbed and mixed on the Sunday. Loyde emerged with the mixed master tapes but for a whole raft of reasons (including his move to the UK ) the album never eventuated. In fact, Lobby burned the manuscript the day before he left for the UK. The tapes went missing for many years, presumed lost forever but they recently surfaced. The album itself is an incredibly eclectic and diverse assortment of music: vast swathes of glacial keyboard notes with Loyde's unique, soaring psych-rock guitar work to the fore. It is classic Space Rock. On top of that are Loyde's classical music influences, in particular his great love of Wagner and Beethoven, which come out in much of the music. Finally seeing the light of da 31 years after it was recorded.
