mindira There is so much to love here; comforting and familiar sounds from Prog past, nods to Neo-prog and a careful balance between muscular drums/guitar instrumentals with thoughtful melodies and sensitive lyrics. The guitar is precise and honest, the clarity of the vocals is an aural treat and the drumming provides perfect structure. There is sentiment not sentimentality, pathos not schmaltz. A proper, 'growed-up' album.

Eleventh Earl of Blah Camel-inspired without being derivative, a lovely mix of moods and styles, with excellent guitar work throughout. Highly recommended!

GOLDEN SUNSET ROULETTE Lyrics by Paul Davis 67, a summer in heaven A dust-ridden sunset glow We’d travel the coastlines With acid and moonshine Adrift in the unknown And she would give her love to me And I’d give my all to her And we’d drive off into the sunset With no regrets Golden sunset roulette How beautiful it was to feel so free On the horizon The sun always shining Our senses were overgrown Never returning Cigarettes burning Love showed us the way to go And she would give her love to me And I’d give my all to her And we’d drive off into the sunset With no regrets Golden sunset roulette How beautiful it was to feel so free Golden sunset roulette How beautiful it was to feel so free And she would give her love to me And I’d give my all to her And we’d drive off into the sunset With no regrets Golden sunset roulette

That Night 04:31
THAT NIGHT Lyrics by Paul Davis Howling winds and crashing waves cry over me Won’t somebody, someone set me free I was looking up, looking to the sky above me Where fireflies light a pathway to the stars But that night I was distracted by the pale moonlight And the stories you told That made the night come to life That night I was transfixed by Your wandering eyes And the waves we’d create When two broken hearts collide A sense of loneliness became a part of me A feeling that became familiar to me I was looking up, looking to the sky above me, Where fireflies light a pathway to the stars But that night I was distracted by the pale moonlight And the stories you told That made the night come to life That night I was transfixed by Your wandering eyes And the waves we’d create When two broken hearts collide The waves we’d create When two broken hearts collide That night I was distracted by the pale moonlight And the stories you told That made the night come to life That night I was transfixed by Your wandering eyes And the waves we’d create When two broken hearts collide When two broken hearts When two broken hearts collide

Fly Lady Fly 05:00
FLY LADY FLY Lyrics by Paul Davis Money for old rope Well, that’s what he said While steadily wiping The sweat from his head Working the stables As if nothing was wrong He’d sing fly lady, fly by The words to her song Partial to a drink or two The smell of liquor on his breath His dogs and his horses Were all he had left He’d say, “living was easy I was doing ok” Until that one morning Life took his lady away His days would pass slowly He’d spend his whole afternoon Singing fly lady fly high We’ll meet again soon

SECRETS OF THE RISING SUN Lyrics by Paul Davis Late nights in the Canyons Lady by my side Passers-by say hello They never say goodbye Who knows where we’ll be when the sun rises up? On my rusty steel string Singing ‘round the fire Waiting for the sunrise To come and take us higher Who knows where we’ll be when the sun rises up? Secrets of the rising sun Secrets of the rising sun Who knows where we’ll be when the sun rises up?
