THE THOUGHTS OF EMERLIST DAVJACK

I was too young to be into the Nice when they were around but I did follow Emerson Lake and Palmer and Refugee as a teenager. Out of curiousity I bought this CD in the hope of discovering a sound I was already familiar with. Big surprise! Clumsy sixties experimental pop. A bit like trying to find Led Zeppelin in the Yardbirds - no hope. I have no idea what the Nice's later albums are like but this one is dreadful. I tried to keep it just for archival interest but everytime I came upon it in my collection it seemed to taint the rest of the CD's . See I'm a bit of a perfectionist, if things are a bit dodgy like, well I can't be bothered.
