PUDDING EN GISTEREN [AKA: PUDDING & YESTERDAY]

Did you ever wonder what you would get it you cross Canterbury and Symphonic? You might get something that sounds like Supersister. This band sounds great alongside their Dutch compadres Finch, Focus, Earth & Fire etc. Absolutely killer chops, and very focused, clever, evolving compositions. This review applies equally to their other albums, because I have a sort-of 'best' of. The 20-minute "Pudding en gisteren (Music for ballet)" is a classic example of a well-written long suite. They also have inherited the Monty Python-esque humor from the Canterbury school, just listen to "Radio", which makes fun of pop music. Wonderful stuff, but unfortunately hard to find.
