FANTASIA LINDUM

For this album, Blondel pulled out a multi-movement suite on side1 of the vinyl the title of which gave its name to the album. But progheads beware: if you are not familiar with them, do not expect a full blown epic. Although I tend to think that this track is the centerpiece to Amazing Blondel's oeuvre, it is by no means much different than their other material. A suggested in the review above there is a similarity with Gryphon but it is also the case with Steeleye Span , Tir Na Nog , Malicorne. All of them make it a specialty to record pre-classical era songs with variable meticulosity and strictly on this point/category, Amazing blondel is not the leader at all. This does not mean that it is uninteresting , but they have relatively low prog contents in their albums.
