FLÜGHT

This is another mexican band, another great band which released sadly only one album in the early 80`s, im sure even here in Mexico this band is not known , it`s too hard to find the album, but anyway i`d like to review it and tell you my opinion about it, and again, suggest to you another mexican work.

Yes, this is another mexican band who dont use vocals in the album, let me tell you that this is only instrumental with plenty of keyboards and piano, great guitar job in some moments, and a nice bass, and a particular thing is that you wont find any drums on here, maybe you might think that it makes it less compex or worse, but not at all, in this case at least i dont miss them.

Now the review, this album which is self-titled album, has only 2 songs, as i say above, 2 instumental songs , where you will find lots of classical influences, some electronic moments, but mainly a piano oriented work.

"Transparencias" is the first and longest song, it`s lenght is over 20 minutes, and it`s the softest of them both, the lightest, the most classical. During the 20 minutes im sure you will enter to a deep state of relaxation and admiration , attention for the keyboard and piano lovers, this song is absolutely beautiful, i immediately remember Wakeman in his most classical tunes , and this pianist has an obvious influence of him and other epic classical piano players like Chopin for example. This song doenst have much changes, and maybe you will find it more classical than progessive, but when the guitar enters it sound also good, so great song.

"En Un Viejo Castillo" the second and las song of the album, 16 minutes of great music, but this time, the progressive influences is obvious, from the start you will hear hints of prog electronic, you will notice that bands like Tangerine Dream were one of their influences. This is another great song, an epic which is always good, it doesnt have weak moments, and as i say above it is more progressive, some changes, some little fast tempo moments, and a nice bass during the song, again we can notice the superb piano of Sergio de Labra, and all the song is very interesting and good for your ears.

I like this album so much, if you dont like classical pieces and prog songs without drums, dont try it, but if you want to give it a chance, maybe you will find it interesnting and maybe you will like it, i really recommend it, not a masterpiece , but great as an excellent recommendation to any prog fan. 4 stars for me!
