HORSE – HORSE on Noble Exclusive Vinyl
Seller Notes
Limited to 600 Copies!
Psychedelic hard-rock with occult overtones by this London-based band featuring drummer Ric Parnell (Atomic Rooster, Spinal Tap…)
This is their sought-after sole album, originally released in 1970 and housed in a cover designed by Roger Wootton of Comus.
Horse was formed in 1968 when former high school friends Rod Roach and Adrian Hawkins started writing songs together. Rod had previously played lead guitar with various groups (including a brief stint with Andromeda). Horse final line-up was established in early 1969 with Adrian Hawkins on vocals, Rod Roach on guitar, Colin Standring on bass and Ric Parnell on drums. Horse started gigging around London, sharing the stage with acts like Deep Purple, Joe Cocker and David Bowie, soon establishing a large following due to their exciting live shows. After receiving interest from several record companies, they finally signed with RCA Records.
The Horse self-titled album was recorded at Olympic Studios, produced by Rod Roach, and released in 1970.
It’s a fantastic example of post-psychedelia and early hard-rock / proto-metal, dominated by Roach’s killer fuzz-wah guitar and Hawkins powerful vocals.
Including tracks like the occult-themed “The Sacrifice” and more!

Took my daughter to Noble Records for the first time today. Friendly staff, cool spot. Store was easy to navigate. My daughter found the Blink album she wanted & we left. Will definitely be back
This is one of the best records places in the Charlotte-Matthew area. They have an amazing selection of sealed & preowned vinyls, cassettes, CDs, and more.
Sometimes I find record stores through research on the cities I visit. Other times fellow collectors might provide advice on where to go. Noble is neither ... I found them through their Instagram presence
