ALBUM REVIEW
One Niter is widely regarded as their best album and stands up as one tremendous pieces of symphonic progressive rock. This album was actually their second release and followed a 5 year delay after the release of their classic debut album. This album is essentially made up of two side-long conceptual tracks (Circles and One Niter Medley). The music of EELA CRAIG is very much keyboard centric featuring a wide host of keyboards with lots of mellotron. EELA CRAIG play serene yet majestic and hauntingly beautiful themes with lots of Mellotron, flute, symphonic string synths and killer guitar work. The vocals are also well done and float along with the music in a very similar vein to that of CAMEL. On One Niter, EELA CRAIG also blend in some slight funk-like themes into the symphonic fog and gives the listener something quite original to listen to. (loserboy - Progarchives)
