The Muffins - 1978 - Manna/Mirage (Canterbury, RIO) torrent

- (1978) Manna/Mirage -

\\\"Somewhere between National Health, Soft Machine, Henry Cow, and the original Mothers Of Invention lies the sound of this album by The Muffins. The music is primarily played by four core multi-instrumentalists: Billy Swan, Paul Sears, Tom Scott and Dave Newhouse... The result is a wonderful journey through sometimes improvised, sometimes tightly written, jazzy rock music...\\\"

The relatively unknown U.S. band is still active, but this, their debut album has to be seen as a real classic and an essential contribution to the Canterbury/RIO/Avant Prog genre.
