Paul Brett's Sage - Paul Brett's Sage 1970

Tying together many of the musical threads of their day, Paul Brett Sage was a progressive band in the best sense of the word, with an adventurous sound that was accessible to all, though they never lost sight of their origins. The group grew out of the folk duo of guitarist/singer Paul Brett and percussionist Bob Voice, and their eponymous debut album sees Paul Brett Sage retain a folksy bend, which reaches grand agit-folk heights on "Trophies of War." Elsewhere, Brett's fiery licks and solos, particularly on the anthemic "3D Mona Lisa," paints rock right across the backwoods vista. Evocative flamenco-tinged guitar sizzles around "The Sun Died," while Brett's aggressive performance on both 12-string and electric guitar creates a "Warlock" worthy of the modern age. With the band's prominent use of percussion, Nicky Higginbottom's haunting flute, their strong melodies, and infectious choruses, Paul Brett Sage hovers between folk, rock, world, and pop; an album that deftly manages to be all things to all people.
