As is so often the case, a band I knew nothing of that a friend alerted me to, it has a mix of funk, soul-pop, and surprisingly (maybe not, given this was the early 70s), some progressive fusion. So the mixture is similar to fusion-pop bands Australian

the next one that came a decade later (!) with a marked deterioration in quality as per the law of declining progressiveness.

Great Post Julian, The Feiten Larsen Band have one more album, which is nice too. So is the keyboarders Neil Larsen's stuff. Always enjoying your blog.
ReplyDeleteFull Moon's keyboard player Neil Larsen has a nice album "High Gear", which he made in 1979. You might possibly like a track called "Nile Crescent" : )...
ReplyDeleteHere is one more from them.
