lyrics
It's race time....and they're out, blinkers off!
This 1999 studio recording, recovered along with "Circus Ponies" from the "Four Walls Bending" analog multitrack tapes and mixed in 2019, is the third movement of "Grit to the Wire", my equine fantasy for rock band and electronics. The first movement, "Circus Ponies", exists as both a studio version (track 2 on this EP) and as a live version (track 4 on "The Rococo B-Sides" from 2005.) The second movement, "Aerial at the Gate", can be found as track 2 on "The Rococo B-Sides".
Sorry for the confusing timeline...as in life I guess, art never follows a linear progression! But now "Grit to the Wire" is finally complete.

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.

got recc'd this on youtube and loved it- reminds me a lot of late 60's and early 70's records i used to hear playing out of my parents' stereo on sweltering summer days.

Though only their third studio album release, these veterans have been around for almost fifteen years--and they keep getting better with each release--which is hard to manage since their quality of compositions, performances, and production have always been top notch. A band that really should be heard!

Iamthemorning’s keyboardist strikes again. A huge team of geniuses (including Gavin Harrison) cooperating for a thoroughly enjoyable record, regardless of the genre you want to classify it in.
