Kestrel - Take It Away


[1975]
Jaunty progressive pop from mid 70s England doesn't get much better. Are Kestral a cult act. They had organs, synths and mellotrons along with their guitars for their epic and melodic tunes. This one's the least proggy track from their one and only LP Kestrel which is an unknown minor masterpiece. Take It Away's rockin' easy-listening quasi bossa-lite insistent pop that really could have been an influence on Stereolab's entire aesthetic.
