A good example of mid-70s post-psychedlic avant-fusion. Renowned as the band Phil Manzanera played with just before joining Roxy Music, Quiet Sun also had Charles Hayward [This Heat], and Bill McCormack [801] as key members. The album has echoes of Robert Wyatt-era Soft Machine and gives some hints of where some of the early fire of Roxy Music came from. A true gem and well worth listening to - repeatedly, especially in the bath after Schoenberg!
