the essence of Axelrod's daring and beautiful work.
Released in 1968, this album reflects much of what was going on with music then. Axelrod was already at a creative peak: Jazz discovering Rock and willing to embrace it, orchestral arrangements that are bold and pushing the envelope of the traditional big band concept and -along with the addition of electric guitars- engage in full psychedelic flight without indulging in trippiness for trippiness' sake.
Songs of Innocence is hopeful, the wide-eyed wonder of someone wanting to tell you all the promise they see ahead. |
