EELA CRAIG

Years ago I really self discovered the wonder of Eela Craig with "One Niter 1976" and "Hats Of Glass (1978)" both of which are great albums. The debut album in review here is very different for their mid 70's albums that I was familiar with carring a less symphonic approach for sure. This is pure classic 70's Krautrock thru and thru ...and an amazing album for sure. Saturated in tons of organ, sax, flutes, e piano this album really will blow your mind! Again very spacey and the band really like to ebb and flow between more serene moments and heavier parts. Lead vocalist Wil Orthofer has a great voice and a deep soul which really adds nicely to the music. Throw in a couple of 10 min tracks and you have an album that will work for all lovers of 70's Krautrock.
