1486 - Nektar King Of Twilight 1972

Nektar, a quartet of Englishmen who met in Germany in 1969 and formed the band. Ron Howden (drums, percussion), Derek "Mo" Moore (bass, vocals), Alan "Taff" Freeman (keyboards, vocals) and Roye Albrighton (guitar, lead vocals) would become huge in Germany and nearly broke big the in the U.S. "A Tab in the Ocean" contains superb guitar/bass workouts which are layered with organ soaked melodies, vintage classic rock drumming and excellent vocal harmonies. "King Of Twilight" displays a mood with staccato percussion and a welcome touch of Mellotron choir. It also contains some stunning instrumentals including thrusting power space rock. The epic voice of the beginning, the dry and repetitive riff, the lyrics sung in chorus. For the middle front of the guitar solo is full of duplicity and bases low, keyboards, drums and guitar genius.
