Lesek Semelka, SLS in 1985's Coloured Dreams

 



This gentleman was in Bohemia (just posted recently with bonus).  

His 1985 release though is quite different, with a commercial slant and very little creative direction or progressiveness, despite the discogs descriptor.  Which you can't blame him for, given the year of 1985. I supposed SLS is the artist's group named for himself.  From my amphibian proggy point of view the best track is the title track which is the last track:




Nonetheless, here and there some tracks well worth hearing.

  2. Lešek's prog credentials go back to the 70's, when he was a singer and keyboard player for Blue Effect (or M-Efekt or Modry Efekt, which was a name the band was pushed to adopt). This SLS album is probably the last recording of drummer Vlado Čech (another Blue Effect member). Vlado sadly drank himself to death, his departure from SLS was probably due to his alcoholism. He was replaced by a younger drummer, David Koller. Who later became known as a frontman of Lucie and is generally a huge name in czech pop/rock.
    The SLS guitar player Stanislav Kubeš is a Robben Ford and Allan Holdsworth inspired guitar virtuoso, his best work was probably with Vladimím Mišík's Etc... Band.
