3 stars A single from the peak years

I'm surprised to see that nobody has yet reviewed this non-album a-side single from Curved Air. This shows how underappreciated this band is. The single was released in 1972, the same year as the Phantasmagoria album, and the b-side is the title track from that album. The a-side is called Sarah's Concern, a song which to my knowledge is not available anywhere else appart from this 7" single release. The song is an up-temp melodic affair packed with keyboards. It reminds me of the 'bouncy' style of Gentle Giant! Even if it is perhaps not up there with the best song from Phantasmagoria like Marie Antoinette or Melinda (More Or Less), Sarah's Concern is every bit as good as the other tracks from that album and would have fitted nicely on that album.

A nice addition to the studio albums.
