FAIRYPORT

Such a sophisticated rock of the early seventies, sometimes structured according a pure progressive style,however always enriched with some jazz-rock cues and a few "Canterburian" hints as well...ok, but what a pity for the weak production!! In particular Risto Pensola (clarinet) and - Pekka Pöyry (soprano saxophone) give a touch of their own, while Jim Pembroke and Jukka Gustavson create the main themes around a piano and an organ sound, closer to a certain Scandinavian mood, even though their interplay is a bit strident in some circumstances..well "Rave-Up For The Roadies" is the best jam-session of the album, but please don't regard this 70's album as a concept-work!!

The fourth section of such work is probably the best one, despite of containing a different stuff in comparison to their standard, which sometimes seems it's not well fitted into the whole project, but it's a question of personal tastes and impressions...at the end the collection of the "proto-prog" works can be enriched by means of this "Fairyport", so make your own choice!
