Chase

While there much political discourse going on with no signs of being that clear just how things will pan it, it reminds me so much of the early 1970's where it seems the UK was ungovernable.
This takes me round to on the last of the Vocalion Dutton releases of October that feature the work of Chase, a Jazz-Rock group formed by Bill Chase who went on the release three albums. Jim Peterik who was with Survivor for a period performs on this album.
This two on one super audio cd  contained the last album Pure Music and the first, Chase, whose style is more reminiscent of Terry Kath era Chicago than anything else I can think of with original compositions such as Open Up Wide and Close Up Tight and covers such as the Mike d'Abo song Handbags and Gladbags.
As with the whole series on a regular cd layer and the super audio layer you get the stereo mix and on the super audio cd layer for player that can read it, the original Quadraphonic mixes issued on SQ Quad lp and Q8 Quad 8 track "surround sound" mixes are present and have not been available for a exceedingly long time.
I managed oddly enough to get this for £9.99 including mailing which was a absolute steal.
