Cyrus Faryar- Cyrus LP 1971

Eleckra EKS-74105

levy Ex

kannet Ex- (tai Ex) corner cut

netistä: solo-effort by renowned studio/ session guitarist/musician/producer; ...subtle-melodic bag with string-arranged parts and captivating Chorus-lines(!) ...and a voice reminiscent of fade-glowin' summer-peaks in mere Fred Neil manner...well, the latter served sure for influence & inspiration! ...as did David Ackles on some selections that are fraught with some 'existenial' moods like 'springtime bouqouet' which has some 'electronic' sources woven in by Alex Hassilev and impressive string-arrangements by Kirby Johnson. ... "softly through the darkness" (my personal hi-lyte track) rekindles some Tim Buckley magic from his "blue afternoon" period mixed with that haunting 'Neil way' of lettin' 'em throat strings hum with brushes of deeply droning fragrance... ACE line-up feat. Ralph Towner & Colin Walcott among other BIG names! the Chorus-Section feat. David Crosby, Cass Elliott, Bob Gibson, Bruce Johnston, Dick Rosmini &...Paul Rothchild...well, looks like they all sat in to say THANKS and show appreciation for some impressive 'stringed-wooden-box-pickin' Cyrus contributed to various releases down the line!)
