Akoustik = Papersleeve = (CD)
The album contains quite a number of highlights like the Jethro Tull influenced track Silent Man which acoustically even reminded me of the early albums by Mostly Autumn. That also applies to Margaret Montgomery. On this wonderful acoustic version it seems as if former Mostly Autumn member Angela Gordon played the flute and Bryan Josh the acoustic guitar. Tears In The Rain is another highlight on which the organ and the acoustic guitars are dominant and on The Night And The Devil the backing vocals of Julie King work perfectly. Her singing strongly reminds me of another former Mostly Autumn member, namely Heather Findlay. I guess all tracks can be considered to be musical highlights. I even wished that I could have been present during these recording sessions! This album proves again that great progressive rock music can be made without all those layers of keyboards, stunning guitar solos and bombastic orchestral parts. Sometimes less is more! My compliments to Guy Manning and his fabulous band! He not only rocks electrically but also acoustically!
