In 1969 – some three years before his self-titled debut solidified his stature as a pre-eminent Fender bender — Roy Buchanan signed with Polydor Records and began work on his first full-length platter. But it took 35 years before this material saw the light of day with the release of The Prophet: The Unreleased First Polydor Album on CD.

Augmenting the 11-track running order that would have made up that disc, the single-CD package contained 30-plus minutes of previously unreleased outtakes, including tunes documented at an aborted March of 1971 session. This stuff is every bit as good as the official Polydor releases; the medley of “After Hours”/”The Messiah Will Come Again,” for instance, might even be better than the respective later versions of those songs that showed up on Roy’s albums. Never before on vinyl, The Prophet comes in a 2-LP set pressed in orange and black “fire” vinyl (because you won’t often encounter more fiery guitar work than what’s here).
