HATS OF GLASS

2 years after EELA CRAIG's "One Niter" masterpiece they released "Hats Of Glass" an album I am also quite fond on. In sharp contrast to their 2 earlier album, "Hats Of Glass" takes on more of a pop influenced symphonic aura which is quite fine with me. The album actually opens up with a cover of Chris De BURGH's "A Spaceman Came Travelling" which is actually a great version. Another tune which really grabs me is "Grover's Mill" which is a perfect cross of TAI PHONG and PINK FLOYD. The rest of the album plays in the symphonic rock space quite handily with a solid mix of colours and themes. Overall although the album carries a less robust aroma as "One Niter" it is still a great little album and a definite contribution in the symphonic rock genre.
