POE

   I was told so many months before about the new Eric Woolfson Album, POE, I would believe that is a sort of continuation of the superb TOMAI...The question is: Is this album THAT great as the first album of the APP? I haven't heard that record, not even samples of the music, so you guys maybe have and please share your impressions about the album...Thanks!

	the app album tales of mystery and imagination, songs about the short stories of the great opium fiend Edgar Allan Poe is a great cd, very musically inclined, i feel its a strong cd all the way through.

	I have Woolfson's "Poe" album. I think to some extent he feels (probably with some justification) that his contibution to the APP has always been under appreciated. With "Poe", he's trying to redress that a bit by implying it's a sort of follow on from APP's first album. I wouldn't recommend it on that basis, as their are in reality few similarities. It does however have some good stuff on it, more like APP's later works. A couple of the tracks are quite odd, one sounding more like something from a West End show. Had it been released as an APP album, it would have made a natual follow on from their previous output (probably more so than Parson's recent "A valid path"). Given Woolfson's (under credited) dominance of APP albums, I would certainly suggest this album released in his own name should be on this site.
