When I hear the opening crashes of In Circles, I get a thrill
and it barely lets up throughout the course of this excellent album as the power
prog-trio expand on the psychedelic and jazz-rock tendencies of Cream (with
liberal splashes of orchestrated symphonic prog) to create that rare and
beautiful object ... a masterpiece of progressive rock. The aching tone of
Dunton's limited vocals work perfectly with the compositions (he is after all
credited with having written all the songs!), although T2 can really mix it with
the best of them. T2's remarkable gift is that their songs sound so fresh that
one almost takes them for impromptu jams, and yet they are way too skillfully
executed and structured to have been (although Keith Cross does actually play
the odd "bum-note" or two on No More White Horses!).
In Circles in particular
is an example of T2 applying the restraints on its own fury and then eventually
letting Cross' abundant talent loose. His fiery playing puts in the Paul Kossoff
bracket of special guitarist who shone brightest in their mid teens. The
piano-led J.L.T introduces Dunton's propensity for writing unforgetabble
melancholy melodies and its outstanding, orchestrated deceptively-timedoutro is
one of my favourite "subtle" moments in all of prog.
And then we have the
latent power of the intro of No More White Horses which really is a thing of
beauty (even if it is here that Cross stumbles in his frenzied opening solo).
The melody of the song itself is bewitching. When Dunton goes "someone is
sitting there" it's like a release and as for the sudden silence after the
chorus ... it's perfection! Cross's superbly-constructed blues solo that moves
from ice to fire, and the ominous conclusion that echoes J.L.T.'s with piano,
brass and strings giving it an epic feel all go towards making this one of my
favourite ever songs.
But still the ultimate statement of intent has to be
the 21 minute-long Morning. I can't think of a 20 plus minute prog track that
flows more naturally than this one. It begins with a simple acoustic guitar
strum and another melancholic Dunton melody ... "to a sky that answered not at
all" ... but the boys soon take off on an astral blues-rock jam, full of twists
and turns, there's a "bridge" 6 minutes in, a sound effects-laden section, a
third vocal section that comes in around about the 12 minute mark that is
jazzier and rockier than its predecessors, there are hints at a jazz-waltz and
yet another majestic brass-heavy outro! Frequently sublime
stuff.
