ONCE UPON A TIME.....Wild Life

 

WINGS  Wild Life  (Apple,1971) - Rock


     Wild Life is a world apart from Paul’s previous band. In a fantastically rebellious move, he defied expectations by making Wings’ debut a raw, brilliantly sloppy and human album that sounds a lot like freedom. The sequencing is unapologetic, starting with the wild one-two of Mumbo and Bip Bop. You quickly realise the key to appreciating Wild Life is being on board with its feel and attitude from the off. Here’s a man lauded for his melodic suss communicating by way of grunts, groove, silly voices and feedback rather than exquisitely crafted hooks and arrangements. And it’s an absolute blast.

ONCE UPON A TIME.....Still

Слика
  PETE SINFIELD  Still  (Manticore,1973) - Progressive rock       The name Pete Sinfield may not mean much to the casual prog observer but to aficionados his identity will always be linked to  King Crimson . As the band’s lyricist and, to a degree,  Robert Fripp ’s artistic muse, Sinfield contributed the lyrics to the first four Crimson albums.        For reasons unknown, the firm of Fripp and Sinfield ceased trading circa 1971 but, rather cunningly, former KC bassist  Greg Lake , perhaps sensing a lack of lyrical gravitas, created a similar role for him in the world-conquering  ELP .       Still , Sinfield’s first and only solo album was unveiled to the public in May 1973 and was quickly sidestepped by all but a very few discerning members of the progressive rock-buying public.  TRACKLIST : The Song Of The Sea Goat                        ...

ONCE UPON A TIME.....Gravy Train

Слика
  GRAVY TRAIN  Gravy Train  (Vertigo,1970) - Progressive rock       Their debut shows Gravy Train as a brave and daring underground band, heavily influenced by and derivative of other prog/hard acts of the time, yet actually trying to push the boundaries forward. Unfortunately, since the album bombed, the guys preferred to dump all the experimentation of these songs in favour of a smoother, more commercial sound later on, which totally destroyed their idiosyncrasy and forever nailed them as second-rate good-for-nothings.
