A GIFT FOR YOUR DREAMS

Interesting psychedelic/space rock band from Greece. I happen to find this CD by pure chance and I had it for a long time before I discovered this band was in this site. The music is dreamy, with very good guitar solos, a nice rhythm section and some special guests: there are great flute, organ and violin passages. On the other side I didn´t like the vocals. Angelos Gerakitis has a good voice, but something is missing in that department. The last track has a woman singing lead and it clearly shows a better perfomance.

The band has a sound that clearly shows a influence by those bands from the late 60´s and early 70´s, but it of course much better recorded and produced. Nothing too exciting or new, they could have been a little bolder and more adventurous, but still it´s all very well done. There are no real ´jams´, just some alongated solos and they are all quite tasteful. The CD is a bit short for my taste (a little over 40 minutes). If you like this kind of music you should check it out.

Rating: somewhere between 3 and 3,5 stars. Good, but not essential.
