CD Reviews

Lost in time

Stephen Quinn | Huntington Beach, Ca | 03/16/2005

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I saw these guys in Santa Monica in '72. They were brilliant. But they had the misfortune of following Loggins & Messina in their first big gig. The crowd wanted to rock but Mark Almond was all about the dark and the cerebral. At one point, Jon Mark said with maximum sarcasm, "If you're here to see the Allman Bros, they're playing down the street."

This album is their masterpiece. Impossibly laid back, it weaves its tale of Bay area angst and ennui with the most marvelous unhurried sense of timing. Eloquently balancing Mark's classical guitar and wistful voice with Almond's tenor sax, the listener is plunged into the self-absorbed sense of lostness that was so commonplace in the early '70s. It's not exactly jazz but it will do."
