Having made a promisingly thumping start with 1974 debut ‘Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is’, Olympic Runners returned the following year with ‘Out in Front’: funk to the fore and tapping nicely into the nascent disco vibe.
This beautifully-chilled and stripped-back take of The Korgis’s 1980 smash hit measures the enduring appeal of the song.
Recently-retrieved recordings from 1970 and 1973 reveal classy jazz underpinnings to this cult British Hammond-driven progressive rock trio, whose self-titled release – ‘Quatermass’ – is widely sought- after to this day.
Today’s rock aficionado has much to enjoy in this assured veteran set; taut, crisply-produced and delivered with aplomb by seasoned performers, it never falters.
Traditional folk, cool jazz, singalong soft rock, tundra to conundra - musically, this 2003 release was this celebrated English folk artist’s most varied and ambitious to date.
