On the producer's seat was the very gifted rock musician Pave Maijanen in his first work as a producer!
The music wasn't half as progressive as the "old" Wigwam, but as pop music it was simply perfect. I can't even choose which song I like more. Both songs are full of good melodies and the airy sound is exciting and elegant in a way that no Finnish pop music had ever been. I came to think of this music for a reason: the soon touring "Wigwam Experience" featuring Jukka Gustavson and Pekka Rechardt turned out to be the real thing, Wigwam celebrating its 50 years, when Jim Pembroke announced he'll be joining in.
These two classic songs are likely to be heard in the concerts this autumn. But since both songs are on the album as well, it's a firm four-star case. Review by Mellotron Storm Prog Reviewer. Actually I like this one though I wasn't familiar with the original it's just good to hear Pembroke's voice.
The organ, bass and guitar all get the spotlight here. Not into this at all. I enjoy the acoustic guitar, bass and drums but when that distorted organ kicks in I'm smiling. Good song. It's fairly straight forward and bluesy too though. Sure it's a great song but I can't get into it. They seem to jam here. It's okay. My final top three. Floating organ to start as quiet vocals join in. The vocals turn passionate and theatrical around 2 minutes.
It's pretty much bass and a beat after 8 minutes as the organ floats in. I like when the tempo picks up as they "rock out" for a while. The vocals are back after 14 minutes. If your into this band I'd suggest checking this album out. I'll stick with "Fairyport" and "Being" myself but there's lots to like here. Almost a year after their comeback they recorded two gigs from Tavastia Club, Helsinki and released best parts as two CD.
This album represents quite typical Wigwam gig after their comeback in nineties with almost whole Nuclear Nightclub played. First song "Friend From the Fields" is the only piece from the albums before Nuclear. They made a longer studio version in their "Light Ages"-album, but this is the shorter version from "Being".
Pembroke had told he tried to make a song where he needed all the piano keys and result was "Simple Human Kindness". Kettunen succeeds in this very complex piece well. The second vinyl starts with 12 minutes version of "Do Or Die" where both Kotilainen and Rekku play great solos. In "Nuclear Nightclub" Kotilainen plays accordion really great way. Surprisingly, considering the circumstances, the album is a strong one and definitely more cohesive than their previous outing, Lucky Golden Stripes and Starpose.
From the opening track, Oh Marlene! The pressure of Virgin Records on the band to come up with more commercial material seems to have had an effect on the band's creative output, something which is also visible when one looks at the songwriting credits where Jim Pembroke, the band's more commercial songwriter has a hand in all bar one of the album tracks. Notwithstanding the pressure, the band still managed to come up with a piece of work that in my opinion surpasses Lucky Golden Stripes And Starpose in terms of quality.
