TANTRIC OBSTACLES

Tantric Obstacles is my favourite Ozric cassette release. While lacking the ethnical sound it later developed it still has a lot of memorable pieces like the great synth-driven 'Shards of Ice' and IMO the best song of the album - 'Sniffing Dog'. Ed really show that he was a great guitarist even way back in '85. 'Atmosphear' is also noteworthy and great to listen to. Too bad some of the songs like 'Mescalito' sound a bit 'dry' like they didn't put much work in the production process, but then again we're talking about a home made cassette release so they sure got the best out of it. I can recommend this to every space rock fan that isn't scared away by poor production quality. Enjoy !
