Notes: Another
stereo session by the leader of the Light Brigade and his wide
array of followers. Terry Snyder put together three different groups
to record the tracks herein. There was a large orchestra with full
reed, brass and rhythm sections and three percussionists. Next
was a small combo consisting of a single sax, trumpet, trombone
and a rhythm section. And lastly a group built around a four man
percussion section as well as two guitars, accordion, bass and
piano. The result of all of this instrumentation is a nice balance
of musical selections and moods. And as usual with the Light products
the liners notes are copious and very detailed. Each cut is explained
such that you walk away understanding not only how the song was
arranged, but what the technological intent was. And the cover
art is your typical sparse, draftsman like graphic that tells the
tale very well in a few horizontal bars and black dots. Another
candidate for the bachelor pad hall of cool.
