Speed The Plough - Mansons Box - Compact Disc
Speed the Plough creates an atmospheric terrain rich with undulating layers of rhythms. Strings and strums abound--acoustic and electric guitars and mandolin are married to the bass and drums, creating a big, bright rhythmic shimmer. Melodies are carried by the male and female voices. They, along with occasional violin and woodwinds, peek out like noses, chins, and toes from under covers. MASON'S BOX is the group's third release and one of its strongest.John Baumgartner delivers a number of songs that instantly jump out of the gently spellbinding mood. Spurred on by such stunning numbers as "Napoleon" and "Oh, the Paradise," the band steps forward with inventive and sympathetic playing to meet the new challenge. This album is imbued with a warmth akin to a crisp autumn walk in the woods.
