Strawbs - Settlement (New Album)






















One of the more fondly remembered bands from the seventies was for me The Strawbs. I first came across them when had had a couple of chart hits including I'm Part Of The Union which reached No 2 in 1973 and remains a favourite (especially as a retired trade unionist) to this day. However despite their brief flirtation with what was the "Glam Rock" scene they quickly returned to the Prog Rock roots and this new album is certainly a reminder of those halcyon days.

The current line-u includes Dave Cousins with his distinctive vocals and there are a dozen great tracks to sit and listen to whenever the mood takes you! Currently there are no videos of any performances from this album but there are audios available from which I've chose this tack, Judgement Day albeit a slightly shorter version than the one on the CD.
