Eloy Time to Turn

After the marvelous Planets album, Eloy continued with this excellent progressive rock album. The omnipresent keyboards are however just a bit less elaborated, futuristic and bombastic than on Planets: they are pretty symphonic and a bit spacy too…

German progressive rock band formed in Hannover in 1969. They took their name from H.G. Wells' "The Time Machine", and sci-fi elements feature in much of their music, particularly the mid-to-late 1970's concept albums…

The Tides Return Forever was Eloy's comeback and partial return to their progressive roots. Although firmly rooted in the AOR that was so dominant on preceding albums, one can really sense a remarkable improvement in the Eloy sound…

Reincarnation on stage - a real good title for a live-album of a band returning to stage nearly 15 years after their last live appearance in 1998…

A new decade, a new lineup, with Frank Bornemann on guitar and vocals, Klaus-Peter Maziol (who stayed on from the previous lineup) on bass, Hannes Folberth on keyboards, Hannes Arkona on guitars, and British born drummer Jim McGillivray. This marked a new direction for the band, a more accessible, direct approach in their music…

After more than thirty years in the business of making quality music, EMI has finally released the definitive compilation of Eloy. It is mind boggling how underrated this band is, yet how original and creative they had been since their first 'proper' release for EMI's label 'Harvest' in 1973, an album called 'Inside'. They have been unfairly compared to Pink Floyd, Hawkwind and even Jethro Tull, (because they used the flute on couple of tracks in Inside, and because Future City has a bluesy feel!) which is quite ridiculous, and shows how little the music press and industry understands and appreciates progressive rock. When you listen to Eloy properly you will soon discover an original and total creative music world that is compared to none.
