YEAR ONE


"Year One" 1976 (no label yo-52347/8) [2 LPs; gatefold]
Apparently this is Fantasy without the female singer. Why that band would jettison its best asset is beyond me, but she would have given some nice energy to this sprawling prog/jazz/rock concept piece. There’s a lot going on here and a lot of energy was put into this album, and it gets points for being an uncompromising mix of styles. Some of it works and some doesn’t; surprisingly a few jazzy instrumental pieces are highlights while the few bits of space rock don’t fare as well.
