GODFREY & STEWART: THE SEED AND THE SOWER

Apart from the gentle African rhythms on the relatively upbeat opening track, this is very much music for lone listening. Definitely not easy listening folks. If you have read Van der Post's equally difficult but rewarding book or even seen the movie "Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence" you will understand the moods. "Reverberations" in particular is strangely moving.

This album would make an excellent crossover link between prog & the sort of contemplative electronic music by the likes of Michel Huygen, Johannes Schmoelling & recent (quasi-classical) Vangelis.
