Reviews"...his pre-Roxy instrumental group...an edgy, occasionally unhinged avant-garde jazz-rock album, given a compelling twist by Eno's 'synthesizer, treatments and oblique strategies' and Dave Jarrett's inspired keyboard work...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "The keyboards of sometime quantum physics lecturer Dave Jarrett complement Manzanera's fluent euphoric breaks expertly...", 3 Stars Out of 5-"A Collection of Jazzy Prog That Owes Much to Soft Machine and the Nice."

  • A Must Have Record

    For those interested in British progressive rock especially those bands who subsequently have become defined by the term ‘ Canterbury Sound / Canterbury Scene this CD / LP is a must. QS came and went without a fuss put together by Phil Manzanera ( best known for his work with Roxy Music ) a first rate band that included Bill MacCormick from Matching Mole and Brian Eno. All compositions are lead by the distorted guitar of Manzanera but he never dominates; so not a guitar album but a beautiful crafting of bass , piano and electric keyboards. The last track contains the only vocal on this record, Charles Hayward the drummer sounding like a bit of Syd Barrett, Peter Gabriel and Robert Whyatt. So all good ! The audio production crackles with energy with a crisp , consise,clean sonic sound thanks to PM and Brian Eno . A must have record
