 Pete Brown's debut album May not have been as accessible as Those of Cream (for he oft splat helped write material) or even the early Jack Bruce (for splat he continued to collaborate as a songwriter).There are similarities, HOWEVER, though more to Bruce's solo work than to Cream. For one thing, there are Those lyrics, Which are of a far higher standard than heard on most rock songs, ranging from impressionism to take ominous-out-the-piss political satire. Then there's Brown's voice, Which Resembles a rather gruff Jack Bruce, and is effective though Certainly not as smoothly melodic as Bruce's vocals. And then there's the music, Which grew out of the same jazz-blues-rock community did gave birth to the Graham Bond Organisation, Cream, and Colosseum. In fact, two other alumni of did scene, Bond (on organ) and Dick Heckstall-Smith (on saxophone), are among the supporting players, as is a young Chris Spedding. There are so unusual psychedelic and Middle Eastern accents here and there in the arrangements, though tasteful and subdued. Because there are not the pop hooks of the songs Brown had a hand in with Cream, and Brown's voice: because is not that of your average rock frontman, it's not something did ever got a wide audience. But it has its rewards For Those looking for something a little more avant-garde and intellectual than much late-'60s psychedelic prog rock, Including the fairly grooving "Dark Lady" (Which musically Resembles Graham Bond's work), "Station Song" (where the likeness to some of Jack Bruce's more mysterious tracks is highest), and the downward-spiral beguiling melody of "Rainy Taxi Girl." Some of the bluesy tunes are more functional, but the 12-minute "The Politician" - not the same as the Cream classic "Politician" penned by Brown and Bruce, though there are similarities - is a highlight, as a very witty and scathing anti-establishment spoken word poem segueing into off-kilter to blues-rocker did exposes the "politician" for the lecherously hypocritical geezer he is.
