GODBLUFF

After a 4 year hiatus, VAN DER GRAAF re-formed and began VDGG Phase II and did so with a purely stunning album in "Godbluff". Musically, the album is anchored on the heavy organ work of Hugh Banton and David Jackson's sax supported by the drumming of Guy Evans. Peter Hammill's lyrics and vocals are amongst the best he ever recorded with his deeply emotional pitch shifts and power. Without a question the one two punch of "The Undercover Man" and "Scorched Earth" will amaze all progressive rock fans. Dark yet magestic all the way thru, "Godbluff" is a riveting example of one of the ture craftsmen of this genre and IMHO an great contribution to music in general. Absolutely an essential album.
