Formed in London in 1969, the 5-piece band Raw Material released their second and final album Time Is... in 1971 on RCA's progressive label Neon. With the help of a second guitarist, the band managed a significant improvement. They played jazz influenced progressive rock in the vein of Van Der Graaf Generator with an important role for the saxophone plus prominent guitar parts. It was an artistic success, but sold poorly. The band disbanded shortly afterwards. Like the first LP, this one is also extremely rare as they've become real collectors items.
