Rare Bird - Born Again (1974-75 uk, splendid smooth progressive rock, 2008 Esoteric bonus tracks remaster)



Follow on from the highly successful of Rare Bird's first  albums with this classic prog rock album from 1973, their second release for Polydor. By the time of this album Rare Bird had changed line-ups, though still retained their progressive style. Born Again was Rare Bird's final album and included their classic Diamonds. Balanced between soft progressive tunes, classic rock forms and funky vibes.
