CRIMSON BRIDGE
Crimson Bridge (Myrrh MST 6503) 1972 Perhaps the most creative of the early Myrrh releases is this progressive brass-rock endeavor, or as the back cover describes it, a “rock-jazz-Latin-progressive-blues-acid-folk” sound. Several sections feature tempo changer-ups and Chicago/Blood Sweat & Tears-like … Continue reading
