Incredible album, sounds great, if you can find a quite copy it’s an absolute joy. Have the 1st UK pressing and it’s an absolute smoker. Such a great album with artistic integrity and depth, really connect deeply with the funky jazzy guitar work by Jeff Clyne and the bouzouki and bass. All the artists on this album are 10/10
I disagree too. And it sounds like a load of musicians enjoying themselves - not always a feature you associate with some other rather po-faced Jazz-Rock-Fusion.
I have to disagree with marcelrecords, this is one of their best albums. Right up there with Elastic Rock and Solar Plexus. Might even be my favourite out of the three. Amazing jazz-rock/canterbury scene record. I have all three as reissues from Tapestry Records and they sound great.
Typically a second album with too little time in between: there are no new musical points of view discernable or it must be the heavy riffs in unisono between bass and brass. The ''Lullaby for a lonely child'' is very subtle, though. The last two tracks suddenly feature vocals, but these are uncredited. Anyone who knows? This still is quite acceptable rock-jazz, but it lacks a bit excitement.
