Kestrel is an obscure progressive rock act with one album released in their short career. Self-titled from 1975 , this album is a good one in every way, because it reminds me of the great prog rock bands from mid '70's. To me this album is a combination between heavy prog arrangements and some art rock parts, very well composed with some memorable parts. I have the Japan CD version and the sound is crystal clear, every instrument is where it belongs creating some excellent passages full of interesting keyboards and great guitar chops. The vocalist, Tom Knowles is very good, warm voice and fits perfectly in the mood of the album. What I like most are the keyboard parts, there are some fantastic passages like on In The War, both on great intro of the piece and the last minute of it, great atmospheric and grandiose keyboards, excellent. Also the heavy prog sections are very well performed, where the duel guitar-keyboards are awesome, tight and interesting in same time. Another highlight is Take It Away , a piece full of joy and positive mood, what a great tune.
