Free Music Notes for In the Land of Grey & Pink
Free Music Review: A visit from the past
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this album back in the 70's when I was 16 years old. A friend recommended it back then as an entry level record for "not the usual staff" progressive type of music. Although I have not listened to the album for some 20 years now, the music and the lyrics still hover in my head! Since then I lost the album, and browsing through amazon it came back to me as a record I must have in my collection. Really outstanding album, highly recommended to anyone interested in the "not so popular", "jazzy type of staff", "nobody can dance to".Free Music Review: 5 Stars
had this album been recorded today(and it very well could have been!)every indie geek around would be salivating over it!!!this is great,great pastoral english pop @ its finest!!!beautiful melodies,interesting lyrics,and great understated playing!!this is most def. not progressive rock,its indie pop!!!!put this on at a party and dont say who it is and people will think its a modern band!when you tell them its from the early 70s they will not believe it!!!!!sounds like nick drake meets the high llamas meet belle and sebastian.its that good!!!!!just beautiful.Free Music Review: Hard to believe this didn't go platinum back then

Much about the background/history of this album has already been discussed at great length in other reviews. What I will say is that the original vinyl was a quality production but has been reinvigorated with this outstanding remastering, boosted with worthy bonus tracks + excellent liner notes = 5-stars. Although some songs are very English centric and and consequently are dated, the album contains some of the finest instrumental pieces and musicianship of its era, in particular the Canterbury Scene.Free Music Review: Loving the land of grey and pink

I bought this CD for I have the the LP but my turntable is no longer hooked up and I wanted to hear this music again. It is definately worth owning the CD. All the songs are great. Golf Girl, one of my favorites, is a charming ditty about a golf girl selling cups of tea on an English golf course. The songs just flow from one to another and they are just great! I love all the songs on this CD! I highly recommend it to people who also like King Crimson, Genesis and Gentle Giant.Free Music Review: listen here...

please don't listen to some of the other reviews of this album who say its boring or too long.if you are mature enough to appreciate good musicianship and good melody than this is a must buy.the 22 minute track is how they did it sometimes in those days and its refreshing in this day and age to hear.it rocks.it is easy going at times but still very enjoyable.
