Diamond Head (Phil Manzanera album)


Diamond Head is the first studio album by the rock artist Phil Manzanera. It was released in 1975, originally on Island Records in the UK and in the US on Atco Records. The sound quality on the US album was deemed to be worse than the UK album, so the UK import became a popular seller in the speciality record shops who sold Roxy Music and other UK bands.
Unlike other solo albums issued by an instrumental member of an existing band, Diamond Head featured a number of vocal songs performed by guest musicians.
Metal band Diamond Head took their name from the album.
