Album Notes

The musicians of GORGG strike again with more original music inspired by classic prog, from their acclaimed recording series devoted to progressive, multi-influenced music. Enjoy these rivetting works by an interesting and diverse group of seasoned artists from around the world.

"Steve Hackett on a Greek holiday... Had no idea track 1 had Keith Emerson and track 2 was by Frank Zappa!...

Beautiful and touching.... lovely chord progression... a real singer's song... delightful, warm voice... bittersweet aftertaste... certainly has a face, and it's a beautiful one...

So finely lyrical, so touching, so subtle... delicate and subtle colours of emotion... a full palette with both sunrise tones of the birth of a feeling and its darker shades of sadness at the feeling's sunset... A language that speaks to every heart...

Talented and creative... great, fantastic, incredible...

Gentle Giant collaborating with Zappa, Annette Peacock, Robert Fripp, Steely Dan and the Northettes...

Two Minutes in Spain is not enough!"
