Review by Mellotron Storm
PROG REVIEWER

MINUS TWO started out as a four piece and when two of the members left for greener pastures the organist and drummer decided to call themselves MINUS TWO. Some odd pictures of these two looking awkward to say the least. They never did get a chance to record an album but did the next best thing by recording at the SWF studios in Baden- Baden, Germany on July 21, 1972. So a live in studio recording with no real soloing going on. Some vocals I guess to break up the monotony but they make it worse.

We get four tracks worth 32 1/2 minutes and they are listed here under Symphonic. I do like that growly sounding organ on the apt titled opener "Sticks And Keys". I wish there was more of it. I do like the first half of "Differences" , it's a little dirtier sounding and darker, but then the vocals arrive. "First Romance" is fairly mellow but with some intensity late. "Welcome For You" is a little different at least including some vocal expressions.

Not a bad album but I'm wishing that those two members who left had stayed on.
