4 stars Chris Farlowe's turbocharged lungs drive Colosseum's music to the next level on Daughter of Time, the last studio album of their original run. Joining on lead vocals, Farlowe comes across like a more sombre, less excitable Arthur Brown, which I suppose makes sense since both Colosseum and the Crazy World of Arthur Brown had a somewhat similar approach to taking the blues and, rather than trying to reproduce it directly and appropriate it, instead inject a good dose of psychedelia and make it good and weird. It's overlooked next to Valentyne Suite, perhaps because it doesn't have an epic track comparable to the title track of that one, but that seems unfair, since I reckon it's about on a par.
