lyrics
I decided against including "Blow the Brakes Out" on "Out of the Moment", mostly because I felt that in the ebb and flow of the album's tone, "Nonstop Flight" worked better as the album's big Act II almost-pop-aria moment. But here it is, and maybe you can find the right spot to place it and its full-speed outro among OOTM's other 15 songs....
LYRICS:
in his book of arrangements, a chapter was turning over
he knew his lucky days were sliding to an end
into the cruelest months of the long, hot summer
into the blue expanse again
november freeze down and the lights change
and the days grow shorter
his derby roller girl slipped on ice again
he picked a cruising speed for the long, long skate
she was already miles ahead, crashing through the gate
he was her cloud nine plan, end of the incline
she was only a narrow band on his radio
she’s getting ready to love him, like he’s never loved before
but he glides so slow, like every ending is impending
she says you don’t don’t know
how the road ahead is bending
so come on and blow the brakes out
and let her roll
windy city lightning spiked like dendrites
on the lake that evening
he slipped inside before the atmosphere began to glow
‘round every ruined life, angels hover waiting
he moves to shield his eyes from the radiating
he was her cloud nine plan, end of the incline
she was only a narrow band on his radio
she’s getting ready to love him, like he’s never loved before
but he glides so slow, like every ending is impending
she says you don’t don’t know
how the road ahead is bending
so come on and blow the brakes out
and let her roll
on the skin of your knee, in the palm of your hand
a revelation, all unplanned
like fluid moving through you
she’s ready to love, he’s ready to lose
but you take your time and you never choose
and this life, this life goes on without you, goes on without you
blow the brakes out
come on and blow the brakes out
let her roll

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!
