Second Hand - Death May Be Your Santa Claus (Vinyl)

Second Hand was a somewhat obscure British psychedelic band from the late 1960s, though even on their first record from 1968 they were showing progressive touches earlier than most bands.

The group led by Ken Elliott was originally called The Next Collection in the mid-1960s. They changed their name to The Moving Finger and in 1968 the group was signed with Polydor Records, but when it was discovered that another band already had that name, they renamed themselves Second Hand, in reference to the fact that all their instruments and other gear had been bought used. At this time the group consisted of Elliott on keyboards and vocals, Bob Gibbons on lead guitar, Kieran O'Connor on drums, and Nick South on bass, and on their debut recording Chris Williams as guest musician added cello, flute, and saxophone. Polydor released the record, Reality, that same year. Early copies of Reality are credited to The Moving Finger on the labels.
