In the late '60s and early '70s a power rock trio from Youngstown, Ohio called Glass Harp reached for the stars. They must have made contact, as references to stellar events seem to pervade much of their music. As a reviewer of their debut album observed,"...no fewer than five songs mention the sky, and three of the remaining ones talk about things like stars, rainbows, and the moon."
They were a bare bones group in the tradition of Cream, Jimi Hendrix Experience, and fellow Ohio band, The James Gang. But Glass Harp developed a signature sound of their own-a progressive one that allowed the members, collectively and individually, to stretch beyond the confines of standard form; breaks in songs for guitar, bass, flute, and drum solos were de riguere, as extended improvisations that would take the bands performances into the late hours.
Приват-доцент:"Я бы не сказал, что эта группа мне когда-либо сильно нравилась... Glass Harp - это гитарист Phil Keaggy, ударник John Sferra и бас-гитарист Daniel Pecchio. Они умеют играть и неплохо как буд-то бы поют, но ничего больше... Их сайт, не сомневаюсь, будет привлекателен для того, кто о них ничего не знает. Здесь много файлов выложено в свободном доступе.
