Odin "s/t" CD

Following a release of excellent live-material here comes a CD-reissue of German/English/Dutch outfit Odin’s one and only album on Vertigo, originally dating from 1972. This is a true gem from the golden age of progressive rock. Among the albums highlights is the opening track ‘Life Is Only’, an absolutely great 12-minute composition with raging, dissonant Hammond B-3 work, refined song structures and ravishing guitars and vocals. Other notable tracks are a version of the Quartermass-classic ‘Gemini’ and ‘Clown’ which closes the original album with some heavy instrumental firepower. The bonus cut is a 14-minute live version of Frank Zappas ‘Oh No’ with an impressive drum-solo by Stuart Fordham. This CD comes with a comprehensive booklet, including personal liner notes by Ray Brown, press reviews and lots of rare photos.- A highlight
