Re: The album running-commentary and general listening discussion thread.

I've never actually heard a BJH album either.

[Guest]

Before this one, obv.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Track 6, Song for You.

Starts off with Who power chords.

Is it going to be a rocker?

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Who style organ.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

This could be where the album hits take-off.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

[The Call of the Wendigo]

And then a voice like Jon Anderson comes in.

[Guest]

I quite liked that last one.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I do feel that, if they kept the same songs but gave them to another band to play, it'd create a much better album.

Beyond the Grave

Is this about Jes*s again?

[Guest]

Attempts at Mars by Holst. Never heard a Prog band try that before.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

It's totally changed tack and it's quite a nice song now.

[Guest]

This might actually work if it wasn't so bloodless.

I would say imagine what prime prog King Crimson would have made of this.

back in 1969.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Track 7, Moongirl. The one that sounds like Eric Clapton's Let Love Grow.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

And Stairway to Heaven.

One Night

Back to sounding American. Is it The Band? I've never managed to stay awake long enough to listen to much of The Band.

Maybe this ones more Neil Young.

[Guest]

It sounds like a guide vocal, and they never bothered to finish putting the proper ones on.

Same goes for the first half of the guitar solo too..

Just thought it was going to do something, and back to Neil again...

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Track 8, Beyond the Grave.

That sounds scary.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Getting a bit military about things.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Synth overload.
