Psi-Fi
New - Vinyl - JXS 7021
Sealed 1975 Original. “A Leap Forward From Their Debut, This Album Shows The Duo Taking On Extended Song Structures And A More Varied And Much Improved Vocal Style. At Times The Material Sounds Like A Precursor To The Buggles, As In The Slick Synths And Harmonized Vocals Of The Opening Track, "Return To Foreverland." Their Better Material Comes Late In The Album, Though, With Elliot's Writhing, Serpentine Sibilance In "Astral Animal," And The Bubbling Synth And Spanish Percussion Of The Instrumental "El Tooto." The Best Is Saved For Last, With The Closing Epics "Camera Obscura" And "Star Palace Of The Sombre Warrior." The Latter's Somber Arrangement — Of Synths, Spoken Word, And Choir Voices — Breaks Unexpectedly Into A Lovely Moment Of Grace, Where There's Nothing But A Ticking Clock And A Music Box.” – Paul Collins, All Music Guide

Things To Come
Used Import - GULP 1001
1974 UK Original, Still In Shrink. No "Gull Songs" Copyright On Label. Two Tiny Corner Rubs. A Slice Of British Electronic Psych-Prog. "Seventh Wave's Debut Things To Come Showed Keyboardist Ken Elliott To Be The Duo's Greatest Strength And Weakness, For While His Synth Work Defines The Album's Futuristic Sound, His Singing -- As On Strangled Vocal Cords Of "Fail To See" -- Lacks The Sophistication (Or Willful Obscurity, If You Prefer) That Usually Accompanied Progressive Keyboard Work Of This Era. Fortunately, Ten Of The Fourteen Tracks Are Instrumental, Ranging From The Moody Elegy Of "Smog, Fog And Sunset" To The Bright Bells And Chimes Of The Aptly Upbeat "Festival." Despite The Wide Array Of Instrumentation Listed For The Album, The Overwhelming Emphasis Is On Moog And Arp Synthesizers." All Music Guide – Paul Collins.
