Album 4. Track 2. Time Lament (opens the original)
Read excerpt
THIS WEEK ON THE PROGRAM… Chaz Charles and the Voluptuary of Sound, Dr. Glund, continue their descent into Colosseum’s Daughter of Time . And apparently nobody told Colosseum that albums are occasionally supposed to cheer you up. This week: “TIME LAMENT” Six minutes and thirteen seconds of strings, brass, jazz, rock, theatrical weirdness and Chris Farlowe singing like the sands of time have personally wronged him. It is ambitious. It is bizarre. It may also require antidepressants. The studio re

THIS WEEK ON THE PROGRAM… Chaz Charles and the Voluptuary of Sound, Dr. Glund, arrive properly at Daughter of Time . And Colosseum apparently have something to say. Quite a lot, actually. This week’s descent begins with one of the most direct and politically charged tracks the band had recorded to this point… THREE SCORE AND TEN War. Race. East versus West. Politicians dancing while gold pulls the strings. Environmental ruin. Humanity collectively sticking its head in the sand. You know… Light e

THIS WEEK ON THE PROGRAM… This week, Chaz Charles and Doctor Glund grab hold of one of Colosseum’s strangest musical excursions… Rope Ladder to the Moon. Written by Jack Bruce and Pete Brown , the song begins as something almost folk-like and becomes, in Colosseum’s hands, a sprawling psychedelic jazz-rock playground of vibraphone, Hammond, saxophones, guitar, bass and Jon Hiseman apparently deciding that conventional song structure is merely a suggestion. And then they hear it live. TRACK UNDER
Album 3. Track 2. Lost Angeles (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, Chaz Charles and Doctor Glund return to one of Colosseum's greatest live landmarks… "Lost Angeles." What begins as a standout track on The Grass Is Greener quickly grows into one of the band's defining concert pieces—a musical playground that evolved through BBC sessions, radio broadcasts, and the legendary Colosseum Live album into something that seemed to reinvent itself every time it was performed. Before the music begins, however, the show pauses to acknowledge the passing of foun
