The piece Last Day at Lokun is one of Northwind's best. Long with many sections that flow naturally from one to the next. The last phrase in the lyrics - "Will I be free when I'm dead?" is a question that still resonates.
There is a high fidelity live recording of this song that I hope to upload soon. It was recorded on four track tape and is a better performance than the original recording. It is waiting on digitization of the tape.

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper
The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations. Bandcamp Album of the Day May 12, 2022

No one does music quite like Camille and Xavier do. I see their music as being akin to soundtracks for unfilmed movies. In this instance it is a movie about explorers of mountainous terrain, perhaps the terrain of our lives. Merci pour cette musique si intrigante. :-) sumbuk

This is an incredible album for anyone who likes prog, made even more incredible when you read the story of it. This work doesn't sound like one that came from a couple of high school kids, their brother, and his wife. The songwriting, instrumentation, and cohesiveness of the movements in this rival that of groups with commercial successes and budgets from a record label. A wonderful album. Goodfri
