This is in my opinion, the best Jazz Rock album ever made. Don't expect a folky "Jig - a - Jig" style here. Apart from "In the Snow for a Blow" this is driving Jazz Rock at it's best. Dave Arbus & Ron Cains improvise on Violin, Saxaphone, Flute, Bells & Bagpipes over a rhythm section driven by Geoff Nicholson's faultless guitar work. Although in places seriously weird for lovers of the Avant - Garde this is a must, a masterpiece of it's time.

Without doubt the best Jazz Rock album ever recorded. Although seriously weird in parts Dave Arbus' & Ron Caines' Violins, Saxaphones, bagpies, flutes & bells float over a driving rhythm section led by Geoff Nichollson's faultless guitar. I first bought this on vinal in 1971 and have wited for it to appear on cd.
If you like the seriosly avant garde this is for you.

A great album, but why does everyone get all hung up on the jazz-rock thing. Genre spotting is the enemy of musical creativity. Of the true music greats Miles davis devided listeners and fans with his changes in style and setting. Many who really listen realised (as did the definative biographer Ian Carr) that all that Miles was doing was changing the background to his horn playing, but that he was doing pretty much the same on "On the Corner" as he had been on "Steamin'". This was the beginging of the new developments in music in the 1970's and stands up very well today so long as you don't expect it to be anything other than it is. Listen to it for what it is and not what it is not and you will be rewarded.
