Hiro Yanagida - Milk Time 1970

This album offers a pleasant instrumental musical voyage to the world of classical psychedelic progressive rock elements. Neat walls of raw organs, guitars, bass and furiously rolling drums summon forth a pleasant realm of acid rock where one can relax by escaping troubles of logical reasons. Violin fits marvelously as a supporting solo instrument to the sound context, strengthening the sound perfectly. Fast grooves are counterbalanced with quieter sequences and short pieces building up from guitar chord progressions and flute interludes. In the middle of the record jazzy lounging for fuzzy guitar in a relaxed hippie glade follows, allowing to be enrichened with dialogues for violin and keyboards. In the later part of the album are discovered very beautiful classic music melodic tunes, first with flute and harpsichord madrigal, then followed with a piece for violin accompanied with organs and bass guitar. Hollow calls indicate return to more atavistic levels of surreal rock poetry, leading to strongly riffed heavy acid jazzy groove. Funky and vital turns twist a delightful trip in progressive rock styled treatments of jazz standards, giving associations of early German art rock bands sound. After a traditional chamber quickie, the album closes to a melancholic tune with beautifully weeping violin and subtle support from the group.
