H To He Who Am The Only One
One of the defining progressive rock releases of its era
Artist: Van Der Graaf Generator
Genre: Rock
Label: EMI
Release date:
Van der Graaf Generator's second album, the wonderfully inventive H to He Who Am the Only One, sounds as fresh and new today as when it was released. Opening with the brilliant 'Killer', the album is a wonderful mix of rock, jazz and modern classical influences. Peter Hammill's lyrics, as usual, are superb but it is the band's music making that makes this the wonderful album that it is. The instrumentation arrangements are outstanding: in particular the way that David Jackson weaves his saxophones and flutes into the songs is absolutely magic. Hugh's playing of various keyboard instruments and an "Oscillator" is equally inventive.
