Description/Reviews:

Possum... are following in the footsteps of early Soft Machine, Camel’s Moonmandess-era, Syd Arthur, Italian’s own Jennifer Gentle, and the Ladbroke Grove bands High Tide and Quintessence.

Believe me, Possum have really done their homework well to carry a bit of the late ‘60s and early ‘70s vibe from the underground scene with a stroke of the match waiting to be lit. ‘Guest of the Moon’ is sung in the psychedelic version of a Bebop Jazz approach of Miles Davis’ ‘All Blues’ from Kind of Blue. The chords and rhythm have this four-bar vamp that the quintet channel with a modaling tone featuring some brutal heavy wah-wah riffs and swirling organ grooves.
