TRACKLIST:
Artist : U.K.
Country : UK
Release : Danger Money
Year : 1979
Genre : Hard Rock
File Type : mp3 320
Info:
The six tracks on the album include a mix of shorter, alternately melodic and thunderous proggy pieces: Rendezvous 602 (4'58"); Caesar's Palace Blues (4'44"); and Nothing to Lose (3'58"); and longer pieces including Danger Money (8'11"); The Only Thing She Needs (7'54"); and the incredible prog extravaganza Carrying No Cross (12'20"). With regard to the haunting/electrifying Carrying No Cross, it is vaguely reminiscent (structurally at any rate) of the track "Starless" (King Crimson, 1974), and is quite possibly the best piece U.K. ever wrote. At the very least, it is certainly Eddie Jobson's finest recorded performance and his Hammond organ work during the earth-shaking instrumental rave-up towards the end of the composition is simply unbelievable.
