Toward the Sun

Druid

Numbered Yellow & Orange Marbled Vinyl edition

In the hot summer month of 1975 when Toward The Sun was released, Druid were a young band on a roll with the patronage of DJ Bob Harris [producer of the album] and British music paper the Melody Maker [whose competition they had recently won]. Druid's debut album occupies the kind of AOR space that some of the major Prog bands would turn to during the late 70s. Laced with acoustic guitars, 'flutes' and lush keyboards, neatly wrapped in a Symphonic Prog overcoat of more adventurous instrumental passages. In other words, Toward The Sun is a fairly generic example of mainstream Prog from the later 70s.

The songwriting is first class with some lovely tunes and lyrics which 'sound right'. There is a common theme spread throughout the album - dreams and dreaming: from the "long nights' dreams" of opener Voices to Shangri-La "there I'll find my dreams, and some day I'll return when the world has changed". All instruments meld together quite naturally to produce a full and balanced sound, full of light and shade.

Toward The Sun is available as a limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies on yellow & orange marbled coloured vinyl and contains an insert
