GLORY OF THE INNER FORCE

A Dutch instrumental-progressive group who display the musical aura of YES with elements of a more fusion-influenced FOCUS. IMHO this masterpiece of progressive rock spends its time concentrating purely on the instrumentation, delivering complex and fulfilling moods and grooves. "Glory Of the Inner Force" was FINCH's first album and consists of four long and complex tracks with 2 bonus tracks released on a vinyl 7" to "Glory". The musicianship and playing of this band is highly energetic and highly efficient. Mellotron fans will love the keyboard talents of Clem Determeijer who also adds some tasty Hammond and moog. Leader and guitarist Joop Van Nimwegen is also multi -talented musician whose playing reminds me at times of Jan Akkerman. Bass and drumming is also quite exciting and propulsive making this album a treat to listen to time and time again. FINCH's . "Glory Of the Inner Force" is a wonderful 70's prog album that must be owned by all good music lovers out there...
