Φωνητικό ποπ συγκρότημα που δημιουργήθηκε το 1969 από τον Roger Cook, έναν από τους καλύτερους συνθέτες της Μεγάλης Βρεταννίας. Την περίοδο 70-72 γνωρίζουν επιτυχία με μια σειρά σίνγκλ "Banner Man", "Stay With Me", "Sunday", "Good Morning Freedom", "Randy". Το 1973 προσχωρεί στη σύνθεση του γκρούπ η πολυεκατομμυριούχος τραγουδίστρια Ann Odel, αλλά η δημοτικότης τους μειώνεται και στα τέλη του 74 διαλύονται. Ο Roger Cook συνέχισε σαν συνθέτης και παραγωγός, ο Herbie Flowers σαν σέσσιον, ενώ η Ann Odel σχημάτισε τους CHOPYN και κυκλοφόρησε ένα άλμπουμ το "Grand Slam" 1975 (JET)

ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήHi, i always imagine Chopyn album was a progressive album with classic influences and splendid female voice, looking at decorous artwork. Or at least an original sort of Earth & Fire, Renaissance or Curved Air. The voice of Ann Odell is very splendid and bewitching. One thing is present. Progressive music is present so so and classical influences are not. Not too bad, in fact some pieces are very good, "Space Nativity" with the splendid voice perfumed like the whole of Kate Bush, "Laughlin Tackle", the instrumental more progressive "Somebody Gotta Go" and following "You Never Turn...". Perhaps also "Insomniac Arrest" is good but i don't know what it sounds because of the absence. This the artistic side.
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήThe rest of the album is based on effective rock formula with strong american canadian moods but indeed very very commercial.
This album could have been a masterwork if the songs had been written only for Ann Odell and in a more progressive, classical and folk direction, maintaining the right measures of hard and experimental spacey tones here presents.
It deserve more listening for decide if buy this or not, holding present the commercial and the artistic factor.
Beatiful blog on UK scene and Very thanks for listening.

ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήRead instead of: with her splendid voice perfumed like the which of Kate Bush.
Very sorry for my devastant error!!
hi all ... a few words about "laughin' tackle": if you expect the quatermass track, you will be dissappointed - at least for the moment ... for some obscure reason the real laughin' tackle is here made of "somebody gotta go" plus the first part of "you never told me your last name" ... thanx for sharing!
