Egg - Seven Is A Jolly Good Time


When Steve Hillage left Uriel (aka Arzachel ) the remaining members renamed and continued on as Egg! Hurray! One of the finest Prog bands around. Mixing Jazz, Classical music with an underpinning of Funkiness and occasional experimental glitchy noises (see "Bulb" and "They Laughed When I Sat Down At The Piano..."). "Fugue In D Minor " and "Seven Is A Jolly Good Time" are a must hear. "Fugue..." is a J.S. Bach influenced song with a solid funky bass that drives the song. "Seven..." is further time experimentation of the Dave Brubeck kind.
