'God of Hellfire' Arthur Brown made an indelible impact in The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown, performing outlandish theatrics with a burning helmet and being deported from Italy after a naked appearance at the Palermo Pop Festival in 1970. When his bandmates quit to form Atomic Rooster, Brown formed Kingdom Come to cut three esoteric albums for Polydor, this self-titled sophomore set (from 1972) inspired by the element of water. It's a deep dive into prog concept territory, with churning organ, pounding bass and drums, wah-wah excursions and Brown's internal conversations drifting between the speakers. Fantastic stuff!
