HOMEBREW 7

Steve Howe

Crossover Prog

From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

A curious album for every fan of Howe's work. What we have here is a mixed bag of compositions dating from 1979 to 2016, but that can be grouped into two pools: those recorded between 1978 and 1983, maybe inspired from the Paris sessions with Yes and the the sessions from the first album with Asia; and those recorded between 2013 and 2015, probably coming from the sessions from Heaven and Earth. It is interesting to compare both styles here, I think that Tender Hooks and Two sided could have served as very good intros to some Heaven and Earth sogs.

Best tracks are Half way, a a version of "While Rome's Burning" from Turbulence but with lyrics, which would have benefited from the energy and solos of the original, A lady she is and Cold winds, the best piece here.
