    Catherine Howe - What a beautiful place (1971)

    Nice voice indeed....she reminds me of a more mainstream midtempo pastoral version of Laura Nyro. The cover gives a nice atmospheric feel while listening to the songs though none of them really stand out much for me . Still....a pleaasnt lp for those who like mellow songs like that.

    Classical music used in rock songs

    Great song by Stevens ( who of course caught some flack after he converted to Islam). He has done some great lps over the years. with Tea for the Tillerman and Teaser and the Firecat being 5 star lps imo. But can you tell us what classical piece 'Sitting' is based on....I couldnt find any...

    The whole lp Pictures at an Exhibition by ELP is based on Modest Mussorgsky's same named piece. And a Tchaikovsky nutcracker piece also.

    Good drum songs.

    Brufords drumming on the first UK lp is excellent...a clip of this one early intro track with Holdsworth on guitar, Wetton bass and vocals, Jobson on keys.

    Many consider this one of the best drum parts on a recorded track..... Steve Gadd on Aja by Steely Dan
