More information...

This "previously unreleased" album from 1974 rounds off the World In Sound trilogy of Clevelands most celebrated 70s "art-psychedelic" rock groups. Its Dragonwycks most professional piece of music and truly decent pioneering in combining 60s psych compositions, tape looping, and mid-70s symphonic theatrical art-rock: "Fun is what the name implies; hard work, a lot of sweat..orchestrated rock that is orchestrated without an orchestra"...sure they were inspired by the conceptions of giants, like Genesis, Gentle Giant or Yes and express a few Bowie-flashes, but it sounds like a unique collage of detailed studiowork. Compared to the time when it was recorded its extremely innovative produced and became a great artistic statement with finally 10 original cuts (plus 2 bonustracks/8 p. colorbooklet) ...Youll hear prog-psych flashes and crazy symphonic perversions with weird vocals/voices, powerful guitars, violin and lots of keyboards. - While the first album (WIS1023) was minimalistic dark/heavy and strong Doors influenced, the second (WIS1030) created more "British Invasion" flashes a la Moody Blues or King Crimson, to make this third album the most variative and unexpected one. The garage-psych-freak should get his satisfaction by album "no. 01", but its a must have album for open minded 70s musicfans who love to get excited by surprisingly different moods in rock music!
