DAEVID ALLEN'S UNIVERSITY OF ERRORS:
Money Doesn't Make It CD - 12.99
Best group-based album from the Gong maestro for a long time, as Allen is
accompanied by members of the modern Krautrock-influenced out fit Mushroom.
A set of twelve tracks reveals some typically angular Allen compositions
with trademark wordplay an insightful lyrics while the musical backing is
largely given over to dual lead guitars, space guitar, glissando guitar,
bass and drums, plus flute on a couple of tracks. The most remarkable thing
is that the music is just pure Allen and can't be classified as rock or
fusion or Krautrock or psychedelic, etc - rather, it has elements of all of
this but comes out melodic, dynamic, accessible fascinating and entirely
fresh, but unmistakably Daevid at work. Mostly song-based, there's little
room for instrumental stretching, but it's a fine, varied set of
compositions and playing.
