Morly Grey is a progressive rock band that formed the late 1960s. The group recorded a single album, The Only Truth, which was recorded and released in 1972.[1] Some discographies and music catalogs continue to list the album’s release date as 1968 or 1969.The confusion over the release date may come from the album’s serial number of 69000 (originally released through the Starshine label) and the fact that the album had a very short release period. The first single from the album was "Who Can I Say You Are". Most pressings of this single incorrectly list the album’s original title—The First Supper. In the 1980s and 1990s, the original vinyl LP pressing of the album had become somewhat of a collector’s item due to its rarity and the fact that it came with a full-size color poster.[2][3] The album was reissued on CD and .mp3 in 2005 by Morly Grey's own Speed Label and publisher Morly Grey Publishing(ASCAP).[4]http://www.myspace.com/morleygrey
Morly Grey is an important historical musical example of the foundations of progressive rock and demonstrates how early 1970s psychedelic-style rock influenced later, more established progressive rock bands like Yes before the genre was know as "progressive".[5]
