Lucifers Cage Gordon Giltrap represents a unique British musical talent,having evolved a guitar style which is as individual as his music is recognisable.His astonishing technique,has seen him compose some of the most stunning acoustic guitar based works of recent decades. This is Gordon's first ever live album and was recorded at Oxford Polytechnic on 9th March 1979,by the RAK Mobile. Band members include the legendary John Gustafson on bass,whose past bands include The Mersey Beats,The Big Three and Roxy Music,also on drums was Ian Mosley who went on to join Marillion.
Reviews A guitaring experience from those exciting days of the seventies with the exceptional talent of Gordon Giltrap. On this album there's also Jon Gustafson on bass guitar who has been with many bands including Roxy Music (and has had a lot to do with plenty of releases on Angel Air). There's also drummer Ian Mosley who went on to play with Marillion. The others players include Rob Edwards, Eddy Spence and the lovely Shirley Roden who's voice is beautiful and smooth. It's the gifted playing of Gorden that shines through the brightest, the best example can be found on Catwalk Blues. This is very much along the lines of Steve Howe (Yes) doing The Clap. Another stunning track is Inner Dream, to be fair, though, they're all good. Great first live album. Must check out some of his other work. | |
