ALBUM REVIEW
2nd album by British Prog band Jackson Heights formed by bassist / vocalist Lee Jackson following the folding of the Nice in 1970. The band was basically a trio with guitarist John McBurnie and keyboardist Brian Chatton. Ex-King Crimson drummer Mike Giles played the drum parts and several other musicians also helped out. On this album they played original material written mostly by the guitarist. The band had a unique sound and style, which combined different musical influences from Folk to Jazz, and lost nothing of its charm in time. Mostly forgotten in the years gone by, this reissue is a nice reminder of how good the band was. Recommended! (Jazzis - Rate Your Music)
