Eef Albers Kwartet Skyrider plus more




Unfortunately the only album from this mucho talented crew headed by the guitarist who so generously gave his name to the kwartet, this represents Euro-fusion at its best with a minimum of self-inflated improvised dawdling and a maximum of composed passages and riffs, with the typical emotional resonance of their version of this US artform:





The last track, called me Take me There. Note that Gerry Brown is the drummer.

With regards to the prior elements of Eef's discography, 1977's Blue Capricorn is a very agreeable guitar-by-numbers easy listening instrumental album (though take note of the gorgeous arrangement on the Albers-composed title track) reminiscent of late Jan Akkerman instrumental albums, and 1980's Brothers with the dynamic duo John Lee/Gerry Brown is electric but a bit on the too bluesy side.
