Womega - 1975 - A Quick Step


This obscure band came from Belgium and was a big discovery for me because they really sound good, they released only one album in 1975 named A quick step. The bands was formed by the 3 brothers Vanlessen who also are the main composers of the pieces. The music is quite eclectic with nice mellotron passages, warm vocals and some sax and jazzy interplays added here and there - not far from canterbury flavour . This album is hard to find both on vynil or Cd but if you do don't hesitate to listen, they worth it. The best piece is for me the opening track Nympho's Belly Button - here Womega shines on every instrument and can fight with the big names in prog, the rest are also very ok for an oscure band. So a big 4 stars for them, they desearve it. The CD that i own is bought from Syn-phonic label at rezonable price for such an unknown band, under japanese mini lp sleeve format. So go and get it.
