## Description

EU digi-sleeve pressing of this 1973 album from one of Prog Rock's leading exponents. On this album, the band featured a different lineup that included two teenage prodigies, the violinist Eddie Jobson (who later found fame with Roxy Music) and guitarist Kirby Gregory (who subsequently joined Stretch). These tracks show Curved Air maintained their dynamic and high standard of musicianship with a brand new line up. Sonja Kristina and Kirby are interviewed by respected author and journalist Chris Welch for the exclusive revised liner notes in the booklet. Repertoire. 2011.

    One of ProgRock's All-Time Best
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2018*

One late night in 1973, long before the days of Clear Channel's limited play lists, I was listening to the radio when they played a perfect late-night song.  The 10 minute Metamorphosis by Curved Air.  That autumn I went to a local department store, who had a bin of imported albums and purchased Air Cut.  When CDs came out, Air Cut was one I was eager to see released in that format.  It took around 30 years for the German Repertoire label to release an acceptable version.  Finally 45 years after the initial release, a proper, remixed version is out.  The sound is dynamic with every instrument given its due.  The included booklet explains the unusual situation that led to the album, and corrects mistakes made on the original sleeve.  As a progressive rock album, Air Cut is up there with Close to the Edge and Brain Salad Surgery and one more people should know about.

The music here, and in particular Jobson's prodigy-level contributions, should already be known to you. While the notes here claim that Curved Air was the Very First Group to employ classical techniques, the claim is simply and blatantly untrue. By the time CA's first album was released in 1970, The Nice, The Moody Blues and others had, with varying degrees of success, already delivered a fairly weighty load of the occasionally brilliant, occasionally oddly misshapen hybrids. As for the fury that Darryl Way unleashed, don't forget High Tide. The line-up they used for their 1969 album "Sea Shanties" proves to be a defining one. And, not to take anything away from Curved Air, I'd argue that even The Beatles' "Eleanor Rigby" should be considered as one of the early successes of the category.So instead of adding to the adoration of the music, I'd just like to comment on Chris Welch's notes to this reissue. Setting the first place claim for CA aside, he does an excellent job of giving us the shorthand history of the group. But here's what's so disappointing. It turns out to be that same-old, same-old break-up story. The now boilerplate gobbledygook about disagreements on "presentation" and "direction" that always seems to be lurking in the background, ready to tear up one worthwhile group or another, despite all their songs about love and gettin' it together. And now that we all get to plumb our early listening years with greater historical and audio detail as well as first-person accounts, the unbearable weight of egos keeps coming up from behind to rob artists and audiences of what woulda, coulda, shoulda been.As evidenced by the music on "Air Cut", it's too bad that Curved Air the band wasn't as different as their music was from all those others that collapsed due to mostly subjective problems. If they had been, they might have seen far enough beyond the squabbles to stick to the work right there in front of them. Perhaps their recent reunion was an acknowledgment of the fact that things weren't all that bad between them after all. Too bad then, about all those years in between...
