Product Overview
It's a clever title and epitomises the band's aim to get real and realise their musical ideas on those reels of magnetic tape used in the recording studios of the pre-digital era. Real To Reel was recorded at the famed Air Studios in Montserrat in the West Indies, and the environment must have inspired the musicians to a greater climax of creativity. The eight tracks showcase the echoing moody sound of Colin Cooper's saxophone, on such tracks as Children Of The Night Time , but it's back to Peter Haycock's funky slide blues guitar on such stand out numbers as Long Distance Love . The pair make a highly productive team, sharing vocal and instrumental duties supported by Derek Holt (bass), Pieter Filleul (keyboards) and John Cuffley (drums). First released in 1979, Real To Reel makes a welcome addition to the range of Climax classics being carefully restored from the archives of rock.
