ANALOGY - The suite
A German band active in the north of Italy. Analogy released a classic progressive album in 1972, on which the group combined the female fronted hippie-rock of Jefferson Airplane with a progressive approach, resulting in a style reminiscent of a.o. Julian's Treatment and Dutch band Earth And Fire. A few years after the release of that s/t debut-LP the band returned to the studio to record a set of wonderful baroque-tinged progressive folk. These recordings remained unissued at the times, but saw a number of issues (on CD and 10-inch) through the years. Now it's time for a new edition on full-length vinyl, and including a bonus cut! Get it!

Analogy
The Italian's may claim Analogy as a classic band from their 70's scene, though the truth is that they were actually German!
Their debut LP (which became quite notorious because of the nude group scenes on the cover) was recorded and only released in ltaly, which would be the reason for such confusion. Analogy were of that genre some suggest as being inspired by US West Coast bands, though really they were very European, combining classical and space-rock elements, and fronted by a powerful unusual female vocalist. lf they could be compared to anyone, Earth & Fire and Sandrose would be favourites, not forgetting to point out an added Floydian spaciness, with lots of organ and guitars. Despite being an oddly balanced album, its reputation is certainly deserved.
After this various different incarnations of the band, under various names, existed. Whilst known as Earthbound (reputedly a new-wave band) they completed an ambition of Martin Thurn's, in the form of a lengthy symphonic opus. So, due to recognition of the Analogy album upon its CD reissue, this later recording was released under the guise of Analogy in 1993. A pleasant work, again notable for Jutta's vocals, but more laid-back, like early Renaissance. The new 25 YEARS LATER documents the band as they are nowadays, re-recording many old songs, in a modern style.(Crack in the Cosmic Egg)
