MCDONALD & GILES

Like Pete Sinfield's "Still", this album makes me wonder why its creators never produced a second or third or fourth album. It's obvious that the talent and creativity were there. Again, like "Still", this does not really sound like King Crimson, but it's a wonderful album nonetheless. "Birdman" surprisingly got a lot of airplay at the time. But then, I heard ELP's "Tarkus" and Pink Floyd's "Echoes" on the radio a lot, too. There were many jokes floating around about DJ's putting long tracks on, then stepping out for whatever reason. I was there once or twice, myself!!
