ALBUM REVIEW
This is the 2nd album by the British supergroup Baker Gurvitz Army, which was created when legendary drummer Ginger Baker joined forces with brothers Adrian Gurvitz (guitar) and Paul Gurvitz (bass), known to British proto-Prog fans as the founders of the legendary band Gun. The trio was joined by excellent keyboardist Peter Lemer (with extensive Jazz background) and extraordinary vocalist Steve Parsons (ex-Sharks aka Mr. Snips). These five formidable musicians had enough talent between them to blow any band off the stage, which is clearly evident from what's enclosed here. Both Baker's drumming and Adrian's guitar playing is some of the best ever heard on record. This music simply refuses to fade out and remains to be vibrant and exciting. Play it loud!
