Pilot - High Into the Sky

Album: From the Album of the Same Name (1974)

I've never been much of a fan of the song "Magic", but the rest of the album is fantastic.

Very talented band its a shame they tried to stay on the commercial side of things. Very polished at what they did. Though l was into heavier music at that time l bought two albums of theirs because they were very good to listen to..

Aye, "Magic" is definitely their less exciting song on the album, although it always reminds me everytime we score at Murrayfield!!! :-))))

This one instead is also my favourite, very jazzy and bizarre, Pilot venturing into that mixture of funk-and-prog so fashionable at the time, it made 10cc, Supertramp and also (of course) The Alan Parsons' Project well known for.

It sounds a LOT like some of dear auld Braveheart Eric Woolfson's outtakes I lately heard from the first Poe album!

Another wonderful track from Pilots 1st album - I dont honestly think there is a bad track on this album, things got better & better as time went on. Pilot were an incredibly talented band and vastly underated. If youve only just discovered Pilot for the first time --then make sure you check out all of their material , you wont be dissapointed.
