MICK ABRAHAMS ~ AT LAST
BGO 671 (Barcode: 5017261206718) ~ UK ~ Jazz-Rock Fusion

Recorded: 1972 Released: 2005

2nd album by UK guitarist Mick AbrahamsFind albums by this artist with the Mick Abrahams BandFind albums by this artist, which was expanded to a quintet for this album with the addition of Mick´s partner in Blodwyn PigFind albums by this artist, reedman Jack LancasterFind albums by this artist. Lancaster´s return marked a change in the band´s overall sound, which was now quite similar to that of Blodwyn Pig, being more Jazz influenced as opposed to the last album being more Bluesy. The rest of the band´s lineup is identical to the one, which recorded the previous album. Lancaster is the main soloist on this recording, with Abrahams keeping a relatively low profile, but he did write most of the music here, with the rest written by keyboardist Bob SargeantFind albums by this artist. Altogether the album is another splendid effort by Abrahams and his team, with great compositions and splendid musicianship, which unfortunately didn´t help much to gain any popularity. Disillusioned by the music business, Abrahams quit the scene completely for two decades, reappearing only in the early 1990s with a new edition of the Mick Abrahams Band, which released several albums since. This is a must for all Blodwyn Pig / Abrahams fans and a splendid piece of British Jazz-Rock Fusion.
