NON STOP

FSB are viewed as Bulgaria's foremost progressive rock group, and with a recording history that stretches back almost twenty years there is support for that. 'Non Stop' was the first album in 1977 and inside the cover slip is a photograph of all five band members, which was obviously taken more recently, and this is repeated in the other two albums I have here. Back then FSB were a trio with some extra musicians, and with two keyboard players and very little in the way of guitars they come across as a modern sounding Greenslade. Actually it is hard to believe that this is an Eastern European band and also that the album is as old as it is as it has dated very well indeed. Largely instrumental, with what lyrics there are sung in Bulgarian, this is an album that is still accessible and enjoyable.
