Excellent Christian melodic aor band who do in fact have 4 cd releases (+1 Japanese issue). A major line-up change after album number one saw ex The Brave vocalist James Salter join the fold for “Ordinary People”. This appeared to have a profound effect as the music stepped up a notch in every direction making this a near classic of the genre. Vocalist James Salter steals the show, with his smooth melodic voice, tender yet powerful with a great tone. The band has some great chops with a aor/fusion type sound like Steve perry’s band. For fans of Toto, Journey, Tyketto, Shy, The Brave, and Europe. A top class release that most people will never hear!!!
The first truly solo album by British guitarist Gordon Giltrap (his previous releases had featured a full band backing him), 1987's Elegy is pitched somewhere between the folk fusion experimentation of John Fahey and Bert Jansch and the more direct, pop-oriented work of rockers like Steve Hackett or Anthony Phillips. Less somber than the title would suggest, Elegy is a lovely blend of acoustic and electric guitars (with some bass thrown in to anchor the tunes, keeping the whole from floating into the new age ether) playing delicate folk-inspired melodies that tend toward simplicity and lyricism instead of either flashy notes-per-minute showmanship or treacly sweetness. It's not hard to imagine that if Mike Oldfield hadn't been so enamored of his overdubbing equipment and multi-instrumental excessiveness that he might have come up with an album quite similar to this in the early '70s.
