Album Description
Whenever Marc & Geoff Mann (well known for his work with the bands Twelfth Night and the Eh! Geoff Mann Band as well as his solo projects) got together in a studio strange and wonderful things happened. Featuring lyrically beautiful progressive rock songs this comprehensive collection features some rare and hard to find solo tracks as well as their song collaborations. Sadly, Geoff passed away in the late 1990s but this CD is a great legacy of their work together.
Album Review
This album is a CD reissue of much of Marc and Geoff’s back catalogue. Lyrically the songs are a delight. Musically, Marc’s songs are as intelligently arranged and impeccably performed as ever. Geoff, formerly with prog rockers Twelfth Night and doyen of Reading Festival and the Marquee, has a very distinctive vocal not to everyone’s taste. But I like it. His lyrics leap out and poke you in the eye. This is an experimental album, ranging from folk songs to a weird acappella. As with any such album, particularly when it runs to 75 minutes, there are gems and base earth here, but the gems make it more than worthwhile – Cross Rhythms
