Title: Great late '60s progressive pop pastiche...
Product review: This is a much misunderstood, occasionally maligned item in the New York Rock and Roll Ensemble discography. On this, they collaborated with a renowned Greek composer: He wrote the basic tunes, they wrote most of the lyrics and made contributions to the arrangments (and played most of the music).This is most assuredly not rock. It's romantic pop with Greek flourishes. It was recorded, originally, as the intended soundtrack to a film. It was never used for that purpose, but it stands as a terrific album of music.Those who come to this album expecting an emphasis on rock and roll, as was the case with the other New York Rock and Roll Ensemble albums, will be disappointed. But those who can accept this on its own merits will find much to like, and some to love.
