Krom Lek - "From Long Meg To Glastonbury Tor"
Hawkwind, Hillage, Gong, Ozrics with vocals, space rock, psychedelia, an aboriginal touch (the unique use of a bogeridoo- don't ask me to explain!), flutes, spaced out guitar, a bass player you can actually hear, solid drumming in total empathy with a band whose songs have been flawlessly seamed together in a re-mastered tapestry that enhances and breathes new life into some stunning originals. Part 1 is great, part 2 even better (This includes memorable songs like "My Coat" from Kromlek's incarnation as When's The Future. And the vintage upright piano is a joy!)
If you like your space rock this double CD has got to be the bargain of the century. Kromlek has never sounded this good and it?s all tastefully packaged as well!
"From Long Meg to Glastonbury Tor" is the complete Kromlek more or less and you really have no excuse for not getting a hold of it- enjoy!
