 Fantastic

| Another fine album from PENDRAGON one of the finest Prog Rock bands around. If you are a fan of Pendragon you already know what I am talking about. Nick Barrett is the most passionet guitar player I have heard since Andrew Latimer of CAMEL. Both he and Andy's guitar will make you weep!!! The track entitled INDIGO just might be PENDRAGON'S and Nick's finest work. This album is great from start to finish. I highly recommend this album as well as all of Pendragon's work. You should also consider any album from CAMEL. you won't be disappointed! |

Fantastic! Utterly fantastic! It is so easy to see why Pure garnered the "Album of the Year" at the Classic Rock Society Awards. This CD is stellar from start to finish. What never ceases to amaze me is how Nick Barrett can release CD after CD that are each classics in their own rights. The quality of music that is consistently delivered by Pendragon is nothing short of amazing. We always have to wait 3 or 4 years for a new Pendragon release but boy is the wait always worth it!
I cannot even review Pure "cut by cut" because each track seems to eclipse the one which precedes it. You are immediately caught up in this CD with in the first minute and it only gets better from there.
Nick's voice and guitar playing have never sounded better. His great accent is alive and well. Clive Nolan again puts in a legendary keyboard performance. Scott Higham replaces Fudge Smith on drums (who was no slacker himself) and his drumming nearly eclipses Mike Portnoy. Round this out with Peter Gee's rock solid bass and Pure is a tour de force.
Pendragon has carved out their own sound over the years, so to try to categorize them in "Genesis, Pink Floyd, or Yes categories" (which so often happens) is a crime. As new Prog bands come along we should start saying that they sound like Pendragon!
I cannot recommend this CD strongly enough. If you do not obtain a copy you are missing one of the best Prog albums to come along in the past year, if not two. I don't pass out 5 stars freely, but in the case of Pure I would give it a 6 if I could!! |
