rep> Isolation - Isolation (1973 uk, fine folk rock wirh jazz prog touches)



British band from early seventies The Isolation, with singing reminds partly more of American CSNY-influenced bands. 

The improvisations of acoustic guitars with piano and flute are good, sometimes a bit jazzy psych-folk styled. The whole idea reminds me more of the first reissue of Oberon. The music is fine, but the “remastering” could have been better.
