ALBUM REVIEW
“The Muse Awakens“ as an album title is pure understatement. Those who know “Happy the Man“ (1977) and “Crafty Hands“ (1978) also know that hardly any other group of the genre was so creatively. And this has not changed with the new album. Happy The Man play as daringly as Yes, as melodiously and harmonically as Camel, as well as in the same secluded and contemplative manner as the Penguin Café Orchestra, without sounding classical in any way. The band also adds a little bit of jazz to the carefully arranged instrumental songs as we know it of Canterbury groups like Henry Cow or Soft Machine.
