Alongside Robert Wyatt, former Caravan vocalist Richard Sinclair's angelic tones were the voice of the Canterbury scene. Guesting here, he adds a stamp of authenticity to a project that already has pretty solid credentials: Maguire has played with Hatfield and the North, Delville with Belgian jazz-rock unit The Wrong Object, and Bianco with Elton Dean. As expected, we're deep in jazz-rock territory – but this time we're way off the map. Maguire peddles a filthy, fuzzed-out organ, revelling in extended, in-the-red jams that turns tracks like ‘Laughter’ into fire-breathing monsters. Delville takes long solos that carry something of the taut tang of late Zappa. Bianco is probably best known as a free-jazz player, operating at a high enough level to gig with Evan Parker, Paul Dunmall and others and he brings a strange unpredictability here. On his own pieces, such as ‘Sea’, he unfolds an impossibly fast free-skittering barrage – a suitably oceanic swell of percussion. And he injects a weird looseness into the backbeats of the rockier numbers, leaning on the rhythms, squeezing in lightning fills that shouldn't work but do. If you only buy one post-Canterbury free-prog stormer this year, make it this one.
